Christmas markets in Eskilstuna and Torshälla 2026 – from Bergströmska gården to the Rademacher Forges
From late November through St Lucia Day, historic homesteads, museums and quarters across Eskilstuna and Torshälla host traditional Christmas markets. On Sunday 22 November, 11:00–15:00, the Torshälla heritage society S:t Olofs Gille opens the season at Bergströmska gården by Lilla torget in Old Torshälla with crafts, home baking, Christmas sausage and open-fire pancakes.
On the first weekend of Advent, 28–29 November, two major markets take place along the Eskilstunaån river. The Rademacher Forges Christmas Market runs Saturday 10:00–16:00 and Sunday 11:00–16:00 among the 17th-century timbered forges, while the Munktell Museum in Munktellstaden offers free admission and an indoor market both days from 10:00 to 16:00.
In December, the market calendar continues with the UF Christmas Market at ReTuna Recycling Mall (Folkestaleden 7) and Barva Community Hall on 5 December, Sigurd’s Christmas Market at Lagersberg Manor on 6 December, ReTuna’s Christmas Market on 12–13 December, and Luciamys along Köpmangatan in the Old Town on Sunday 13 December.
