This image shows a magnificently decorated tree in the Hellbrunn Palace park, adorned with countless red Christmas baubles and atmospheric lighting during the Advent season. The branches are covered in fresh snow, reflecting the warm lights that bathe the scene in golden and violet hues. The vivid colors and intricate decorations create a festive, almost fairytale-like ambiance. This artfully illuminated tree is a popular photo spot and a symbol of the lovingly crafted Christmas atmosphere that makes the Hellbrunner Adventzauber so unique and enchanting.

How a makeshift solution

turned into one of the most popular photo motifs

When hurricane Kyrill moved over Salzburg in 2007, it caused enormous damage. Even our previously impressively large fir at the entrance to the Advent market fell victim to the storm. So we were looking for alternatives for "our" Christmas tree and the choice was made to use the tulip tree at the entrance to Hellbrunn Park.

Since then, the tree has been decorated with more than 350 red Christmas balls with a diameter of up to 50 cm.

An impressive picture is especially good at dusk, when the balls sparkle in the spotlight and the tree shines from a distance.

It turned into a magical makeshift solution!

A photo under the bauble tree – a motif that shouldn`t be missed!
