Nürnberg
The Christkindlesmarkt is temptingly fragrant with gingerbread, mulled wine, and grilled sausages. First mentioned in 1628, its roots probably go back to the time of Luther, when the tradition of giving children gifts at Christmas developed. In the 180 wooden stalls, decorated with red-and-white fabric, traditional goods such as handmade Christmas decorations and culinary delicacies are still offered today. Stroll through the festively lit market lanes and let yourself be enchanted by the unmistakable atmosphere.
