The Sterntaler Christmas Market in Lana near Merano

This year the Sterntaler Christmas Market in Lana looks set to be even more congenial than previously. Starting on 27 November and lasting until 24 December 2021, this annual event over the weekends in Advent is held in the gardens of the historic Capuchin Monastery. Hosting some  20 stalls, this picturesque historical setting will undoubtedly contribute to the special atmosphere. 

Miniature pine trees laden with shiny red baubles and the enchanting decorative illumination adorning the intricate stands, exhibit authentic South Tyrolean handicraf. 

On New Jear's Eve, the food stands laden with local Christma delights will remain open until 1.00 am. A varied family programme featuring ponies and sheep, include a children's glitter workshop and a small circus for kids to join in. All this and more to the accompaniment of live music, assuring unforgettable Christmas fun for one and all.
