The pre-Christmas season in Brixen is twice as romantic as anywhere else. On the one hand, because Brixen usually gets the first snow and the fresh, untouched white blanket on the Plose mountain waits for the first skiers to arrive. On the other hand, because the Christmas market on the Brixen cathedral square brightens up the short winter days. The crafts, regional Christmas specialities and the attractions turn the pre-Christmas season into an unforgettable time for all the children.
