- Nuremberg Christmas Market - The Nuremberg main Christmas Market, known as ‘Christkindlesmarkt’, is one of the oldest and most famous Christmas markets in the world. In the 180 wooden stalls decorated in the Franconian red-and-white fabric, you will find traditional, often hand-crafted Christmas decorations and specialties such as the original Nuremberg roast sausages, as well as gingerbread and speculatius (open from 26.11., daily from 10:00 a.m. Ceremonial opening with the ‘Christkind’-prologue on 25.11., 17:30).

Already mentioned in 1791, it was named one of the 10 most beautiful Christmas markets in Germany (open daily from 10 a.m.) * 2) At the Lucrezia market near the historic ‘Reichssaal’, you can find a rich art-commercial offer of a high level (open from 30.11.) * 3) The “Romantic Christmas Market” at the ‘Palace of Thurn & Taxis’ is an absolute highlight - a lovingly designed Christmas village in the picturesque castle setting with traditional crafts (open Fri - Sun from 12 o’clock / Mon - Thu from 3 pm, an entrance fee must be paid: Mon € 5.00 / Tue - Fri € 8.00 / Sat - Sun € 10.00) * 4) After a walk over the historic bridge ‘Steinerne Brücke’, you reach the cozy Advent market in the Katharinenspital (open from 28.11., daily from 11 a.m. or 4 p.m.).
