Groupon’s Guide To German Christmas Markets
Indulging in a seasonal escape, visitors will get wrapped in the nationwide market tradition with candles, Christmas trees, and a warm atmosphere.
Cologne offers festivities under its immense cathedral as well as on the huge and central Rudolfplatz, while the 600-year-old Frankfurt market features live music and fanfares. In Berlin, travellers may take a city tour of up to 60 different fairs, while the Hamburg markets are filled with handcrafted decorations from the Erzgebirge region.
In Nuremberg, the seasonal holiday is hosted in multiple locations, one of the most famous being Hauptmarkt square boasting stalls filled with sweets, handcrafted figurines and local sausages. With the tradition dating back to the 14th century, Munich’s Christmas Market is held on the Marienplatz, the central square in the city, and boasts a multitude of gift ideas such as wood carvings, figurines and thematic candles, as well as live performances and drama groups.
Düsseldorf beckons with Mulled wine and hot chocolate in Marktplatz, and with a 450 m² ice rink on Gustaf-Gründgens-Platz, while one of the world’s tallest Christmas trees may be admired in Dortmund’s Hansaplatz.
Hanover’s Christmas markets may be found in the historical old quarter around the Market Church and on the Ballhofplatz at the Finnish Christmas village, while the festive scents from Schillerplatz, Schlossplatz, Hirschstraße and Kirchstraße make Stuttgart one of the biggest Christmas markets destinations in Germany.
