Christmas Markets
in Hamburg
During
Advent, Hamburg’s Town Hall will once again provide the grand
setting for the city’s most charming Christmas market. One hundred
merchants will set up their shops on Hamburg’s largest urban
square. Roast apples vs. hotdogs, hand-crafted items vs.
mass-produced merchandise and the quaint cottages designed by
Bernhard Paul, director of the famed nostalgic Circus Roncalli, set
this Christmas market apart from run-of-the-mill seasonal activities
elsewhere.
Here you will find hand-crafted Christmas decorations from the
Erzgebirge region, woodcarvers from Tyrol, bakers form Aachen
producing their famous “printen” cookies on the scene,
gingerbread makers from Nuremberg, pottery from the Lausitz.
Silversmiths and many other artisans and craftsmen invite you to
marvel, join in, taste and enjoy. New this year is “Nordic
Lane”, a tribute to Hamburg’s traditionally close ties to
the countries of Scandinavia and the Baltic region. And back again,
after a year’s absence, is Santa Claus, riding up to the sky above
the roofs of the market cottages in his reindeer sleigh. |
