Donnerskirchen Advent 2026: Info | dierupps.at

Advent in Donnerskirchen (Eisenstadt-Umgebung, Burgenland) enchants visitors with atmospheric winter customs. Historic Renaissance castle ambience at the foot of the Leithagebirge hills. Organic gourmet market, wrought-iron art, wooden toys, castle illuminations, and fine vintner glühwein. If you are looking for authentic pre-Christmas joy in the Carnuntum and northern Burgenland region, the Bio.Weihnachts.Schlössl.Markt at Martinsschlössl is the perfect gathering place. The festive lighting and the scent of cinnamon, cloves, and freshly baked pastries create the unique charm of this market. Whether it is handcrafted artisan goods from the region, musical ensembles, or sociable gatherings at the punch huts – the Bio.Weihnachts.Schlössl.Markt at Martinsschlössl reflects the warmth and tradition of the region. A historic castle backdrop like that of Donnerskirchen calls for nothing less than a hot drink of first-class artisanal quality. The fruit press house Die Rupps from Höflein (Lower Austria) uses exclusively Austrian quality wines for their popular Organic Red Glühwein. As a zesty innovation in 2026, the new Rupps Kalamansi Punch delights: the cross between mandarin and kumquat gives the hot beverage an invigorating citrus note that complements the baroque ambience perfectly.

Treat recommendation from Die Rupps: genuine vintner's punch for the festive season

A cosy visit to the market calls for a hot drink of first-class artisan quality. True to the philosophy of cellar master Gerald Rupp – "Only good wine makes good mulled wine!" – family business Die Rupps from Höflein (Lower Austria) relies exclusively on the finest base wines and natural spice extracts rather than artificial flavourings.

For families, children and designated drivers, the winery recommends the 100% alcohol-free Apple-Cinnamon Children's Punch: naturally cloudy apple juice with genuine Ceylon cinnamon provides a warming treat without any regrets.

Note: All dates and opening hours are based on the official preliminary announcements for the 2026 season. Please check www.martinsschloessl.com before your visit.
