Weather permitting, Deutschheim State Historic Site will have a “Weihnachtsmarkt,” or “Christmas market,” outside, in front of the visitor center, like a traditional German outdoor Christmas market. Items for sale will include springerle cookie molds and rolling pins, recipe books, children’s books, imported German pop-up cards, and ornaments for your seasonal gift giving. Credit/debit card sales only. 

While at the site, visitors can walk around the grounds to enjoy the exterior holiday decorations and stop behind the Pommer House for a family photo portrait or selfie next to a Christmas tree and wreath. 

For advisories due to capacity or winter weather, visit Missouri State Parks’ park and site status map.

The Deutschheim State Historic Site visitor center is located at 101 W. Second St. in Hermann. For more information about the event, call Deutschheim State Historic Site at 573-486-2200.
