For the purpose of international popularization of Armenia's cultural heritage and increasing the recognition of the country, from November 16 to December 23, Armenia will participate in a separate pavilion at the Spittelberg Christmas Fair to be held in Vienna, the capital of Austria. This was reported by the KGSMN.
The project is implemented at the initiative of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Armenia in cooperation with the "Cultural Development" Foundation and the "Hovhannes Sharambeyan Museum of Folk Arts" SNOC. Handicrafts of about 40 masters will be displayed in the Armenian pavilion, including various samples of carpet making, pottery, doll making and souvenirs. :
The Spittelberg Christmas Market is an event with a long standing tradition that has been taking place in one of Vienna's historic districts since the 1970s.
It should be noted that in 2023 Armenia's first participation in the Strasbourg Christmas fair was successful.
