Note about the Cranger-Weihnachtszauber-Talern

This year, you won’t be able to purchase new Cranger Weihnachtszauber-Taler – because we’re currently preparing something new for you! The popular Taler are being digitized and will be available in a modern, electronic format starting next year. This will make collecting and redeeming them even easier and more convenient.

Naturally, all previously issued Cranger Weihnachtszauber-Taler remain valid and can still be redeemed during your visit as usual.

We’re already looking forward to introducing the new digital version to you next year – and until then, we wish you a wonderful time at Cranger Weihnachtszauber!
