Together, they listen to the story of Saint Martin and the beggar. Afterwards, the lantern procession winds its way through woods and meadows, past gardens and recreated medieval houses. As tradition dictates, Saint Martin rides at the head of the procession. The fairy-tale witch Silberzweig accompanies the proceedings with stories in German. The band ‘Wolgemut’ provides the music, and everyone is invited to sing along. ## Important Please bring your own lanterns! **Processions:** 4.30 pm and 6.00 pm **Doors open:** 1 hour before the start of each procession ## Tickets Available in advance only: via our [ticket shop](https://www.berlin.museum/?gomus-shop=open#/product/event/298) and at the ticket offices at the [Museumsdorf Düppel](https://www.berlin.museum/en/museum/museumsdorf-dueppel), the [Ephraim-Palais](https://www.berlin.museum/en/museum/ephraim-palais), the [Nikolaikirche](https://www.berlin.museum/en/museum/nikolaikirche) and the [Knoblauchhaus](https://www.berlin.museum/en/museum/knoblauchhaus). *Please note that photographs will be taken during the event.
