These markets typically start in late November and run through Christmas, featuring beautifully decorated stalls selling handmade crafts, ornaments, and delicious holiday treats like gingerbread and glühwein (mulled wine). The festive atmosphere is enhanced by twinkling lights and various musical performances, creating a cherished experience for families and tourists. The Weihnachtsmarkt tradition fosters a sense of community spirit, inviting everyone to celebrate together during the holiday season.
