Traditionally, many living rooms in Germany are festively decorated during Advent. Often with the same figures, stars, wreaths and lights year after year. Small and slightly larger Lego Christmas decorations could provide a bit of variety this year. From Christmas tree baubles with reindeer to the Winter Village Collection and the Christmas-decorated Main Street with tram, Lego has something for every Christmas fan in 2023. Here are 12 ideas for festive building fun this Christmas:
We’re starting the festive list of Lego Christmas decorations with a new addition from 2023. Anyone who has ever wondered how the Star Warriors celebrate Christmas will get the answer with this set. A small part of the legendary Millennium Falcon is being built. Rey, Finn and Chewbacca celebrate with the droid BB-8 and a Porg. And in the classic way, with a turkey. The Christmas tree is a bit sparse, but a string of lights and mistletoe decorate the scene. According to Lego, the compact set of 282 pieces is only available until December 31, 2023. Here you can find the Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon Christmas diorama.
One of the most popular and sought-after Christmas sets for years. The 343-piece Santa Claus sleigh consists of the bulging and stylishly decorated sleigh including Santa Claus with his wish list in his hand. Four reindeer pull him from house to house. And they are also the stars of this small but beautiful Christmas set.
If you want to hang something different on your Christmas tree or put it in your Advent wreath in addition to the classic Christmas tree baubles and other Christmas motifs, you could choose the little snowman
A real insider tip from the Lego Christmas range 2023. The Christmas penguin stands on an ice floe with a decorated Christmas tree and small presents. Very cool: The twelve centimeter tall emperor penguin can rotate and move its wings. The set consists of 244 parts.
A set that has been in great demand during Advent every year and often sells out quickly. The exclusive Lego Advent wreath consists of just over 500, mostly green, pieces. The highlight: The set can either be built as a classic wreath with four candles and used as a table decoration. Alternatively, the piece of jewelry is given a red bow and hung on the apartment door.
The Christmas tree bauble with Santa Claus is also definitely an eye-catcher. The ball has a diameter of around seven centimeters and can easily be built and hung on the tree by even the youngest Lego fans. And if a Lego Christmas tree ball isn’t enough for you, you should hang the Christmas tree ball with a reindeer right next to it.

Collectors can’t wait for Advent because of the Lego Winter Village Collection sets. They are one of the most popular themed series from Lego. This time we’re heading to the mountains. The Alpine Lodge comes with a good 1,500 pieces and shows a typical alpine hut with a fireplace. The obligatory luminous stone is at the start as well as a snowmobile and a funny toilet house. Fortunately, the price remains stable at 99.99 euros (RRP).
In Advent 2021, builders big and small were able to expand the Christmas village with a light blue and snow-covered house. Santa’s Visit was the name of the set consisting of almost 1,500 pieces. A lovingly designed set that enriches every Lego Winter Village.

The BrickHeadz have also established themselves in the Lego family. The anniversary number 150 was released in January 2022. Jake Sully and his avatar are now on the market as numbers 180 and 181. Numbers 85, 86 and 87 went to “Reindeer” in 2020
A slightly older, but also lovingly designed Lego Christmas set is the journey with the Lego Christmas train. It is from 2017, consists of 169 parts and should especially encourage little fans of the clamping blocks to build for Christmas. A small locomotive with two trailers is being built, as well as two Christmas market stalls and a lantern with a city map so that you don’t miss the Christmas market. Of course, the train driver, a mulled wine seller and a visitor shouldn’t be missing.
The Brickheadz Santa Claus were already lined up as numbers 33 and 34
The Nutcracker also belongs in the top ten Lego Christmas decorations. The limited 320 piece set is hard to come by. Every now and then it shows up at retailers like Amazon. The nutcracker is almost 20 centimeters high when assembled. However, it doesn’t really crack nuts.
Every year Lego also has a buildable Christmas tree in its range. The 2022 version of the colorful tree of lights consists of almost 800 parts. The special thing about this set: You can either build a large tree (approx. 30 cm high) or two smaller trees. Here you can find the Lego Christmas tree 2022.
