Advent market in the monastery

Experience the magic of Advent at the Advent market in the Franciscan monastery of Maria Lankowitz! A lovingly designed selection of handmade gifts and culinary delicacies awaits you in the atmospheric library of the monastery. Are you looking for a special Christmas present? Here you will find unique, lovingly crafted nativity scenes, handmade Advent calendars and artistic candles.

A special highlight of the Advent market is the produce from the monastery garden. This year's harvest was plentiful, and now the treasures are ready and waiting in jars: cosmetics made from the monastery's medicinal herbs, natural hand creams and fragrant ointments that make ideal gifts. The warm woollen products, hand-knitted with lots of love, also make the heart beat faster in the cold season.

But an Advent market wouldn't be complete without sweet treats! Look forward to home-baked Christmas biscuits and pastries, traditionally prepared by the monastery. The scent of cinnamon and cloves that wafts through the time-honoured walls creates a festive atmosphere and puts you in the perfect mood for Christmas.

Visit the Advent market in the Graz Adventure Region and be enchanted by the festive atmosphere in the Franciscan monastery. Find special gifts and experience Advent in Styria from its most contemplative side.
