Bamberg's popular Nativity Scene

Bamberg Christmas Market

Discovering the World Heritage City of Bamberg in the winter months has a charm of its own. The Bamberg Christmas Market still has a familiar atmosphere and is no mass event. Bamberg's popular "Route of Nativity Scenes" links about 35 churches, museums, public buildings and places with a series of remarkably diverse Christmas cribs and creates a uniquely festive atmosphere as Christmas approaches. Most of these churches and museums are of intrinsic interest in themselves, but following the „golden thread“ of the trail is a pleasant way of seeking that increasingly elusive „spirit of Christmas“.

About the Town of Bamberg

Bamberg's fascinating historical townscape has developed over more than a 1,000 years. At the centre of this world heritage town is the largest preserved old quarter in Europe. Around 2,400 listed buildings and the centuries-old garden quarter make up the Bamberg's unique cultural heritage. The façades of its buildings are richly decorated in fascinating detail with spectacular ornamentation.

This World Heritage Site in Bamberg was built on seven hills and is often compared with Rome. On one of the hills stands the imperial cathedral with its four towers.

Other local attractions include the old town hall in the middle of the river Regnitz, Little Venice, and the New Palace with its baroque rose garden.
