Christmas markets
Christmas markets are lit up everywhere and bring light into the dark season. There are numerous Christmas markets to discover in our area! You can find an overview at www.butgenbach.info.
Where has the water gone?
From late summer, the water in Lake Bütgenbach is drained to make room for meltwater. The result is a fascinating and unique landscape that is well worth discovering!
