Nature walks, art exhibitions and holiday markets – including Christkindlmarket – are returning this season.
As with most things this year, the coronavirus pandemic has left its mark on events: some have been postponed to later in the season, others canceled outright for 2021; others are finalizing dates and details. We will keep this list updated as more information becomes available.
