Teutonia Männerchor’s 2022 Christmas Market and Open House

PITTSBURGH, PA (PittsburghNewsWire.com) — Come and join the members of Teutonia Männerchor, Pittsburgh’s premier German singing society, as it opens its doors to the public for Christmas! Enjoy the start of the Christmas countdown in Old World German style as the historic clubhouse will be all decorated for the arrival of St. Nicklaus!

 

Teutonia Männerchor was founded in 1854 for the purpose of promoting choral singing and German cultural traditions. In 1888, their clubhouse was constructed and has become a national historic landmark in Pittsburgh. The society boasts a membership of over 2700 and both men’s and women’s choirs. The choirs perform in both German and English throughout the Pittsburgh area and they also compete internationally.

 

Christmas is a special time in Germany, and the Teutonia Männerchor carries on that tradition. The clubhouse is all decorated for Weihnachtszeit (Christmastime) and would like to welcome you to see and learn about the German heritage and customs revolving around this special time. So… Come and enjoy great German Christkindlmarkt (Christmas Market) food, hot beverages and of course, great German Bier on tap! Music will fill the air as well with periodic performances of “strolling” musicians playing Christmas music. The holiday kickoff German-style would not be complete without Glühwein to warm yourselves while listening to traditional Christmas carols (and singing along), and you might even catch a glimpse of Old St. Nick himself!

 

A small crafter market will be set up to browse wares from local crafters. Plan to bring the family and enjoy the Christmas season with the members and staff of the Teutonia Männerchor!

 

The open house runs from 12:00pm – 10:00pm Saturday December 10th; and 12:00pm – 5:00pm Sunday the 11th. Christkindlmarkt (crafters) will open from 3:00pm – 8:00pm Saturday and 12:00pm – 4:00pm Sunday.
