Immerse yourself in the magic of Christmas: The Christmas Museum in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, part of Käthe Wohlfahrt's Christmas World, displays an impressive collection of historical Christmas decorations, Christmas tree decorations and nativity scenes. Visitors can discover the development and traditions of Christmas, from handmade decorations from the 19th century to modern interpretations. It is a magical place that enhances the festive atmosphere in the picturesque old town of Rothenburg, especially during the Advent season.

The Reiterlesmarkt in Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a magical Christmas market that takes place every year during the Advent season. The festively decorated old town provides a wonderfully cozy backdrop for stalls selling handmade Christmas decorations, traditional treats such as gingerbread and mulled wine as well as regional arts and crafts. One highlight is the historic Reiterles game, which tells the legend of the "Reiterles", a mythical figure who brings luck and blessings. The Reiterlesmarkt enchants visitors with its Christmassy atmosphere and traditional experiences.

The donkey hike is only available on request.

Stupid and stubborn? Rather intelligent and thoughtful. The two donkeys Düsel and Günter take you from the Romantik Hotel Markusturm in Rothenburg through the Tauber valley at any time of the year. Past vineyards, forests, meadows and ponds. The intelligent waywardness of our donkeys tempts you to relax and slow down so that you can perceive the world around you in a relaxed state of awareness.
