Nuremberg Christmas Market

The Nuremberg Christmas Market is one of the most vibrant and oldest markets in Germany. This German market is actually called ‘Christkindlesmarkt’ which means market of the Christmas child.

If you love the holiday season this market has everything you need. The smell of Christmas trees, glühwein, and sweets will instantly get you in the holiday spirit. This famous market is a lust for the eye with nicely decorated stalls and hundreds of Christmas lights.

Once you arrive at the market you will be welcomed by hundreds of vendors in characteristic wooden stalls. They sell a wide variety of goods from local delicacies to wooden toys and Christmas decorations. To make your visit even more memorable you can buy some local souvenirs. For example, you can buy the official ‘Christkind’ cookie-cutter, a cup for mulled wine, or ‘Christkindlesmarkt Punch’. This punch is a tasty treat made of cinnamon and fruits.

You can enjoy this market from the first Sunday of Advent until Christmas Eve.
