There has been a Christmas market in Frankfurt for over 600
years. Full of history and traditions the Frankfurt
Christmas Market is one of Germany’s oldest and most popular
Christmas markets in Europe. In fact the Frankfurt Christmas
Market is so good and beautiful that every year a smaller
sister version takes place in the UK city of Birmingham,
which is probably one contributing factor why the German
Christmas Markets have grown so much in popularity in the
last few years.
For visitors from outside Germany the Frankfurt Christmas
Market couldn’t be easier to get to or have a better
location as it is only 15 minutes away from Germany’s
largest airport.
As soon as you catch your first glimpse of the Christmas
Market in Frankfurt you will not be able to resist but being
amazed by its scenery of beautifully decorated stalls, the
historical backdrop of the Römerberg market place, St Paul’s
church and the gigantic Christmas tree.
Take a stroll across the market and you will enjoy a
wonderful aroma of baked apples, roasted nuts, gingerbread
and mulled wine - quite a contrast to the ever-present
Frankfurt Skyline in the background!
The Frankfurt Christmas
Market is
located throughout the city centre at Roemerberg, Paulsplatz,
Liebfrauenberg, Fahrtor, and Mainkai. |
