Christmas in West Zealand

Christmas in the countryside

Here you will find Christmas experiences, gifts and events across the municipalities of Slagelse, Sorø, Holbæk and Kalundborg.

Snowflakes and hoarfrost turn the fields into beautiful white carpets, while the starry sky glitters above the charming rural Christmas atmosphere of Sjællands Vestkyst. There is no stress or rush here. Instead you will find cosy Christmas markets, distinctive local produce for the Christmas dinner, and the trip to the forest where you can find and cut down exactly the tree your family has set its heart on.

A sparkling sea of thousands of Christmas lights awaits, while cafés and restaurants tempt with æbleskiver, Christmas baking, mulled wine and hot chocolate with cream – for when batteries need recharging and good experiences need digesting.

Christmas is a feast of the heart

Enjoy this special season with the people you care about. Destination Sjælland offers a whole sack full of distinctive, authentic experiences for young and old.

Gifts from the region

It is not only the charming market towns, bathed in garlands and Christmas lights, that tempt with interesting gifts. Farm shops, local producers and inspiring enthusiasts are ready with personal experiences and products to place under the tree.

Christmas is old, Christmas is new – and never quite the same. In Destination Sjælland you will find lovely Christmas markets, wonderful treats and a wealth of cosy activities for the whole family.
