Schützen am Gebirge Advent 2026: Info | dierupps.at

Advent in Schützen am Gebirge (Eisenstadt-Umgebung, Burgenland) enchants visitors with atmospheric winter traditions. The iconic kick-off to the Advent season in Schützen: hearty Krenfleisch (boiled pork with horseradish), freshly made mulled wine from the local Schützen winemakers, and proceeds supporting the youth fire brigade. If you are looking for authentic pre-Christmas joy in the Carnuntum and northern Burgenland region, the Fire Brigade Punsch & Traditional Krenfleisch Feast is the perfect meeting place. Festive illuminations and the scent of cinnamon, cloves and freshly baked pastries create the unmistakable charm of this market. Whether handcrafted regional gifts, musical performances or convivial gatherings at the punch stands – the Fire Brigade Punsch & Traditional Krenfleisch Feast reflects the warmth and tradition of the region. In traditional wine-growing communities like Schützen am Gebirge, genuine enjoyment comes first. True to the philosophy of cellar master Gerald Rupp – *“Only good wine makes good mulled wine!”* – Die Rupps relies on pure wine and natural spice extracts rather than artificial flavourings. Discover the fruity Kalamansi Punsch and the elegant Bio Glühwein Weiß for festive moments at home.

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.

As an elegant alternative, the delicately fruity Organic White Mulled Wine from Carnuntum delights: subtle citrus notes and fine winter spices make it the perfect choice for lovers of light, artisan mulled wine.
