A Christmas Wonderland in Torma Manor

 

Located in the Torma Manor complex in Jõgevamaa, Talveküla is a Christmas village that offers a range of festive activities for visitors throughout December. The village is home to Glämmi, Santa’s brother, and a host of other holiday-themed attractions, making it a family-friendly destination for those looking to experience the holiday spirit.

Talveküla offers a variety of activities and experiences suitable for all ages. One of the main attractions is Jõuluvana Glämmi’s Restaurant and the Gingerbread Fireplace Room, where guests can enjoy festive food and drinks in a warm, holiday-themed setting. The village also features Santa’s Office, Post Office, and Gift Shop, where visitors can send letters to Glämmi, take photos, and purchase Christmas gifts.

At the Christmas Tree Plantation, visitors can learn about the cultivation of Christmas trees and take a walk among them. Children can enjoy the Magic Forest Adventure, which includes an interactive experience with mythical creatures, and the Elves’ Academy, where they can participate in festive activities and games designed by Santa’s helpers.

The Christmas Farm and Petting Zoo allows guests to interact with animals such as rabbits and goats, while Santa’s Storage Shed gives visitors a glimpse into Santa’s secret items and festive decorations. The village also features a Christmas Train that takes visitors on a short ride through the village.

In addition, there is Animal Magic Land, a display of over 100 sculptures of animals such as polar bears and elephants. The Tree Alley and Picture Gallery include more than 80 Christmas trees, all decorated in a variety of different styles.
