A small, decorated Christmas tree by the roadside. A highlight of the Christmas season. Everyone is welcome to hang something on it or take something off. If you're lucky, you might even get a schnapps or some sweets. Cool idea, definitely worth a quick stop! Founded by a dedicated resident of Stedtlingen 👌.
