Christmas lighting is much more than a beautiful tradition – it is also a driver for the local economy. With its festive charm, it aims to invite visitors to discover the diverse offerings of Völklingen shops and to strengthen local shopping. "Such an atmosphere not only creates shopping incentives but also strengthens the sense of community," emphasizes Mayor Stephan Tautz.
At least one Christmas tree is illuminated in each district, as well as the main shopping streets and the area of the City Promenade in the city center.
“We are doing everything we can to continue this tradition in Völklingen and are pleased when the citizens and visitors take advantage of the festive atmosphere to do their Christmas shopping in the local stores,” explain Mayor Tautz and Lars Hüsslein, Managing Director of GWIS Völklingen.
The city of Völklingen looks forward to ushering in the reflective holiday season with you and bringing a touch of Christmas magic into everyday life. Together, we want to use this time to pause, experience community, and celebrate the special nature of the Christmas season.
