Festhalle Barn • Amana, Iowa

Imagine stepping into a grand old barn filled wall-to-wall with glowing Christmas trees — more than 80 of them — each one unique and lovingly decorated by members of the community. Soft holiday music drifts through the air as lights glimmer off ornaments. A towering German Christmas pyramid slowly turns. The scent of evergreen fills the barn. Laughter and quiet conversations echo between the rows of trees.

Tannenbaum Forest is more than a holiday display — it is a shared seasonal tradition, bringing together families, friends, visitors, and neighbors to celebrate the magic of winter and the joy of giving.
