Christmas Markets in the Region
Christmas Market in Gütersloh
Numerous stands, the decorated stage and the festively lit city centre created a pre-Christmas atmosphere in Gütersloh.
In addition to local artists, many groups from the entire region performed on the Christmas market stage. The varied mix of traditional Christmas music and modern music brightened up the wait for the big Christmas. The visual centrepiece is the magnificently decorated large Christmas tree, which is also a popular photo motif.
From 30. November to 30. December 2023 the contemplative season will be celebrated here. Numerous stalls, the decorated stage and the festively lit city centre create a pre-christmas atmosphere in Gütersloh.
Christmas Market in Bielefeld
A new highlight at the Bielefeld Christmas market: The largest pyramid in North Rhine-Westphalia.
When the scent of mulled wine, gingerbread and roasted almonds wafts through the streets of Bielefeld and decorated fir trees light up, the most wonderful time of the year begins. Bielefeld’s christmas market is one of the region’s visitor magnets and one of the largest in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Christmas Market in Rheda-Wiedenbrück
The Wiedenbrück Christmas market is one of the most beautiful Christmas markets in East Westphalia-Lippe. The Wiedenbrück market square, lined with historic half-timbered houses, is then transformed into an idyllic city of lights.
A nostalgic carousel for young and old, a large Christmas pyramid and a colourful entertainment programme create an unforgettable atmosphere. The highlight of the Wiedenbrück market is the visit of the Nuremberg Christ Child.
The Wiedenbrück Christmas Market opens from 27. November to 23. December 2023 on the market square of the town of Rheda-Wiedenbrück.

Culture
Culture lovers take note.
The Kunsthalle Bielefeld is a museum and exhibition centre for 20th and 21st century art and is only 25 minutes by car from the Parkhotel Gütersloh.
The perfect afternoon programme includes important works by artists such as Picasso, Delaunay, Beckmann and representatives of the Brücke and Blauer Reiter movements. The Kunsthalle Bielefeld is an architectural jewel, designed by Philip Johnson in the “International Style”.
In addition to collecting and preserving, it also focuses on exhibitions of classical modernism and international contemporary art.

Culture
The Marta Herford is a real eye-catcher, and not just from the outside.
The sculptural museum building from 2005 is an impressive original by Frank Gehry. The clinker brick facade is very typical of the region and represents its Westphalian origins. On the other hand, the varied and contemporary exhibitions are international and characterised by cosmopolitanism.
The Marta Herford is a lively forum that promotes dialogue between art, business and society.
Experience
Discover Gütersloh
Gütersloh is nature! Gütersloh is urban! Gütersloh is culture!
The young city with a historic centre on the outskirts of the Teutoburg Forest is home to re-nowned companies such as Bertelsmann and Miele, combining the down-to-earth nature of Westphalia with an air of international cosmopolitanism and gentle nonchalance. The lush green city centre and its surroundings are best explored on foot or by bike. Some of the nicest routes lead through relaxing, flat terrain and beautiful park landscapes such as the historic botanical garden and its medicinal herb garden. You might also be interested in taking a relaxing trip to the “Järvesauna” with its unique Finnish sauna area – or the City Museum with its idyllic muse-um café – before following the route back to Parkhotel Gütersloh in the evening.

Culture
Anyone on holiday in the Teutoburg Forest tourist region should definitely take a day to visit the open-air museum in Detmold, which covers an area of around 90 hectares.
The grounds visualise rural life in times gone by.
In addition, the listed Palaisgarten with the University of Music and the historical town of Detmold invite you to linger.
Hiking enthusiasts will enjoy the 8-kilometre hiking tour around the museum. During the hike, you will not only enjoy marvellous views of the south of Detmold and the imposing Hermann monument, but also gain interesting insights into the museum itself.

A trip to the safari park is fun for the whole family and guarantees many impressions and lasting memories.
Experience
Rheda-Wiedenbrück is a twin town that emerged when the two traditional towns of Rheda and Wiedenbrück were merged in 1970. The two historic town centres are connected by almost fully wheelchair-accessible paths that extend for three kilometres through magnificent nature in the “Landesgartenschaupark” that opened in 1988 (now known as the “Flora-Westfalica-Park”).An extraordinary number of historical buildings have been preserved in the town: The castle in Rheda from around 1180 and the many half-timbered houses in Wiedenbrück are now popular tourist at-tractions. The town is home to 200 listed buildings.
It’s always worth visiting the two cosy old towns. A range of independent, owner-managed shops, ex-cellent restaurants, rustic pubs and cosy beer gardens ensure a relaxed stay in the small town.
