Christmas in Middelfart

The Christmas lights flicker in the streets. It smells like mulled wine and candied almonds in the pedestrian street. It is inevitable, you can't escape the feeling: the Christmas spirit is growing inside you.

When you explore the rest of Middelfart, the Christmas spirit becomes even bigger. The expectation leaves your body when you find the last present you have put on hold for too long. At the Gingerbread Town at Middelfart Museum, where gingerbread houses form a miniature city of Middelfart, here the peace of Christmas descend upon you.

The Christmas spirit will find you at Christmas concerts, markets, and at a good lunch with views of Lillebælt dressed in the colors of winter.

If you are lucky, it will start snowing while you walk the mulled wine route, visit Santa and his elves, or write a note at Hjerterum.

There is something special about nature when the soil is frozen, the grass white, and the air fresh and crisp. If it snows, the silence appears — the sounds are muffled and you will only hear the snow squeak under your feet. And then, there between the trees in Hindsgavl Deerpark, you spot a deer. You are both here a brief moment.

In the background, you hear the children's laughter at the top of a hill down towards Lillebælt.

Put on a warm coat, your winter shoes, and a sweater and enjoy Middelfart's nature in the winter cold while you gather supplies for your Christmas decoration.
