    What visitors sayGoogle 4.9 ★ · 92 reviews

    Reviewers adore it — a three-month labour of love by an elderly couple, with detailed miniature Christmas villages in the windows; families have come for three generations. The only complaint is the queue: on busy nights you may wait a long time to reach the windows, so arrive before 10pm. Donations go to local charities.

    The heart of the Lobethal lights — a must with young children.
