Christmas Markets
in Hamburg
Discover
history, tradition and a Hanseatic heritage at one of Hamburg's many
wonderful Christmas markets.
The prettiest is set just outside Hamburg's most impressive town
hall. Hosted by Roncalli's Circus, you will discover lots of
lovingly decorated stalls, filled with hand-crafted Christmas decorations from the
Erzgebirge region and looked after by woodcarvers from Tyrol, bakers form Aachen,
producing their famous “printen” cookies on the scene or
gingerbread makers from Nuremberg, pottery from the Lausitz region.
Silversmiths and many other artisans and craftsmen invite you to
marvel, join in, taste or simply enjoy this fantastic atmosphere.
Old-fashioned carousels bring a gleam to everyone's eyes, not just
the children's. Hamburg has so much to offer during the festive
season: you can enjoy a mug of glühwein on a lake Alster boat tour
or you could visit a Christmas exhibition in one of the city's
museums. There is a Christmas parade through the festively decorated
city centre every Saturday during Advent. It's a magical time for
young and old alike in Hamburg's theatres or on a 'fairytale ship'
anchored along the Jungfernstieg promenade.
Every day at 4pm, 6pm and 8pm Santa Claus will be flying his
reindeer sleigh up to the sky high above
the roofs of the Christmas Market cottages telling the story of
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer.
A visit to Hamburg in the run-up to Christmas is something you'll
never forget. |
