Donatuszentrum Roden Advent Market 2026: Time and location

The Advent market is open on Saturday, 14 November, from 15:00 to 19:00 o'clock. No further event on Sunday has been officially announced. The meeting point is Donatuszentrum, Schulstraße 7, 66740 Saarlouis-Roden. The market stalls are planned for the centre's indoor spaces. If you come along in the afternoon, you can combine a visit to the market with the anniversary celebrations.

Five years of Donatuszentrum

The occasion is a special anniversary: Donatuszentrum has been open for five years. According to the organisers, Mayor Carsten Quirin will open the celebrations at 15:00 o'clock. Children from the neighbourhood will then provide a musical welcome with songs. The centre also serves as a meeting place for exchange, education and community in Roden. The celebrations therefore focus not only on the Christmas offerings, but also on the work of the organisations involved.

Donatuszentrum Roden Advent Market 2026: Stalls

Indoors, you can discover handmade decorations, crafts and gift ideas. The organisers describe a small pre-Christmas market with creative activities. However, no named list of all participating stalls has been published. You should therefore not count on finding specific products. You can take your time browsing on site and find out about the different handmade items.

Hands-on activities for families

The anniversary celebrations include several activities where visitors can get creative themselves. Activities announced include making Advent and Christmas cards, painting candles and writing letters to St Nicholas. There is also a storytime for the youngest visitors and a guessing competition with prizes. The Advent market is therefore also an opportunity for families with children to do something together. Unfortunately, the organisers have not given individual start times for the activities.
