What is an Adventskranz?
The Adventskranz is a very old and important part of Austrian Christmas traditions and almost every Austrian family has one in their home during advent.
Typically it is a wreath made from evergreen branches that is decorated with four candles – one for each Sunday during advent.
Once it is finished you can add more decorations to give it a unique look or just keep it simple.
Now you have the chance to make your own and discover a part of Austrian Christmas customs!
Even if you’re not Christian or celebrate Christmas it is a nice way to get to know yet another part of Austrian culture, meet new people and simply have fun and spend an evening together with other students.
This is an event for all Austrian and International students as well as refugees. There is a small participation fee of 5,00 € and of course you can take the Adventskranz you made home with you once it is finished! 🙂
