Christmas time at the foot of the Sciliar mountain

Christmas is the time for traditions: we meet our friends at the Christmas market, we bake Christmas cookies for friends and family and spend time with the people we love.

A must for the tradition-conscious is the Christmas market on the village square of Castelrotto: the socks, cardigans and jackets from the knitting Paul line up next to crib figures, felted works and candles. Also Fiè allo Sciliar offers a small but nice Christmas market to get in the right Christmas mood.
