Alsace Christmas Markets: a train journey between Strasbourg and Haguenau

Immerse yourself in the magic of Alsace’s Christmas markets during a charming stay between Strasbourg, the undisputed Christmas capital, and Haguenau, the authentic pearl of northern Alsace. Let yourself be seduced by the magical illuminations, the aromas of spices and the warm traditions for which the region is famous.

As soon as you arrive at the 3-star Ibis hotel in Haguenau, make yourself comfortable and enjoy a relaxing moment in the bar, before savoring a typical dinner in a friendly Alsatian restaurant just a stone’s throw away. The next day, take the train to Strasbourg, just 20 minutes away. You’ll be plunged straight into the historic heart of the city, at the foot of the majestic fir tree on Place Kléber. Stroll through the sparkling alleyways around the cathedral, admire the decorated chalets and soak up the unique atmosphere of Europe’s most emblematic Christmas market.

The next day, let your imagination run wild: to the north, discover Wissembourg and its traditional Christmas market, then Hunspach, voted France’s favorite village. To the south, follow the Route des Vins d’Alsace and explore must-see villages such as Riquewihr, Colmar and Kaysersberg, all bathed in the magic of winter.

Two nights at the Ibis hotel with breakfast, a typical dinner for two and two round-trip train tickets from Haguenau to Strasbourg ensure a comfortable, stress-free stay. It’s the ideal getaway to experience the spirit of Christmas in Alsace!
