My Favorite Christmas Store… Käthe Wohlfahrt!
Today I am sharing with you my favorite Christmas store… Käthe Wohlfahrt. (say it like ‘Katie Vowl-fart’)
However, there is one problem. She is located in Germany! Noooooo!!!

A christmas room! |
Pyramids! |
Big pyramids! |
a really neat lighted Schwibbogen |
an even prettier Schwibbogen! Too bad it won’t plug into U.S. power outlets! (Or I guess good thing for my wallet!) |
a neat lighted tree! |
I had never seen these before, so here’s another |
Nutcrackers! |
Even more! |
Even prettier ones! |
I took more pictures but in my excitement in the store I had a hard time holding the camera still!
This is only 1 of 2 stores we went to Oberammergau.
Angel musicians by “Wendt and Kuhn”… Love these! |
can you believe this place? |
This is her flagship store located in Rothenburg ob der Tauber:
Yes, it looks like this 365 days a year! I had the pleasure of visiting 10 years ago. |
At the Rothenburg ob der Tauber location, there is even a Christmas museum!
If that’s not enough incentive to get you to visit her shop, look at one of the picturesque villages she is located in:

All of her locations are here. Guess what?! There IS a store in the USA. But it’s in Minnesota. And I don’t know when I will ever be in Minnesota again.
If you are headed to Germany to go to the Christmas markets, here are all of the locations
So good news, the store ships worldwide! You can look through her online shop here!
In addition to selling brands like Steinbach and Ulbricht, she also has her own manufacturing shop. Here’s a look at some of her items:
What do you like from her shop?
I hope you enjoyed! I enjoyed looking at my pictures again!

I've never been there, and now, it's one of my favorite Christmas stores too! So many beautiful treasures. I'll have to visit the on-line shop. Thank you for introducing me to all of this. I'm going to blame you if I end up spending money in her shop! I wonder if the cords can be adapted for use here. laurie
