Erfurt’s Christmas market is the largest in Thuringia and one of the loveliest in the whole of Germany.

Erfurt’s medieval old town is centred on the Domplatz (Cathedral Square) which is a perfect setting for a romantic and unique Christmas Market atmosphere.

Highlights of this Christmas Market are: an enormous 25m Christmas tree decorated with hundreds of candles, a 12m high Christmas Pyramid and a nativity scene with hand carved almost life-sized figurines.

At Erfurt Christmas Market you will find around 200 little wooden huts surrounded by the aroma of glühwein and spicy Thuringian bratwurst plus many other regional specialities and festive gifts.
