St. Martin's Market at Hamborn Castle

The Rudolf Steiner School Schloss Hamborn community invites you to its traditional St. Martin’s Market on Saturday, November 14, 2026. From 10:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., the school and kindergarten grounds will once again feature numerous activities for visitors to participate in, enjoy, and have fun with.
As is tradition, the market will open at 10:00 a.m. with the 3rd-grade St. Martin’s play in the festival hall at Schloss Hamborn. Afterward, the diverse array of activities for guests of all ages will begin. In addition to the popular activities organized by the school classes—such as the moss garden, candle-making, puppet show, herb shop, cocktail bar, and witch’s cottage—there will once again be numerous hands-on activities and booths run by Hamborn’s local organizations. This year, there will also be a stage program featuring music and entertainment.
In a cozy, autumnal atmosphere, visitors will find many beautiful handmade items for sale, as well as informational booths and workshops. A variety of food and drink options are available at family-friendly prices. A raffle is also part of the program once again. The proceeds from all activities will be distributed in memory of St. Martin. As in previous years, half will go toward our own projects, while the other half will support educational initiatives abroad.
The shuttle bus is available free of charge this year and runs on the routes “Paderborn University Sports Center Parking Lot – Dörenhagen – Hamborn Castle” and “Borchen Town Hall/School – Hamborn Castle.” Those interested can find the schedule and further information at www.schlosshamborn.de/veranstaltungen.
