WHO WE ARE
BRINGING FAITH +
COMMUNITY
TOGETHER.
Weihnachten is presented by The Harvest Project Texas, a Christian nonprofit dedicated to creating community-wide experiences that inspire faith, strengthen relationships, and share the hope of Jesus Christ.
Through Weihnachten, Fredericksburg’s German heritage and the joy of the Christmas season come together with the reason we celebrate at the center — the birth of Jesus Christ.
BE PART OF THE TRADITION
HELP BRING CHRISTMAS
TO FREDERICKSBURG.

There are two ways to be part of Weihnachten and help create a Christmas tradition for our community.

✦
Christmas has long held a special place in Fredericksburg.
Weihnachten celebrates the German heritage and holiday traditions that have shaped our community while creating something new for families to experience together.
This December, that spirit returns to the heart of town at Marktplatz.
