You think you’ve seen everything after the Stranger Things Christmas market, a market at the former airport and even a spooky Christmas market? Then you’re wrong. Berlin surprises all year round – but in winter, the city pulls out a special joker and offers far more than the usual sea of lights parks and ice-skating rinks. The Heissa Holzmarkt not only invites you to get your money’s worth in culinary terms – with homemade mulled wine and delicacies from all over the world – but also to immerse yourself in a universe of quirky experiences. It is not without reason that this Christmas market has “Heissa” in its name: With fire barrels, fire art by artists, a sauna boat and an open-air hot tub, you are guaranteed to get hot here – in the best sense of the word.
For anyone wondering what a sauna boat actually is: it is a traditional, wood-fired sauna built on a boat floating in the water. The equipment includes sauna oils, a Bluetooth speaker for music, towels, bathrobes, optional slippers as well as snacks and fresh fruit. This Sunday you can drop by the Heissa Holzmarkt and experience the Saunaboot for the first time at the Holzmarkt – an ideal opportunity to heat up and completely relax.
