"In a city like Frankfurt, one finds oneself in a most unusual situation, with strangers constantly crossing each other's paths, pointing to all parts of the world and awakening a desire to travel."Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Frankfurt
celebrates…
the Frankfurt Christmas Market
24.11 – 22.12.2025
Starting at Roßmarkt, the Christmas market stretches along Zeil down to Römerberg and Mainkai, where the children's Christmas market is celebrating its premiere this year. Visitors may expect elaborately decorated stalls offering everything from arts and crafts to Christmas specialties from around the world. And let's not forget our towering Christmas tree at the Römerberg, scenically set against the picturesque backdrop of the old town and St Paul's Square.
There are plenty of festive stalls to be found at Hauptwache as well. A visit is a very worthwhile undertaking, with Frankfurt's largest shopping street, the Zeil, located right across from Hauptwache, inviting visitors for some holiday shopping.
Frankfurt's traditional holiday delicacies, which you absolutely must try, are a particularly pleasing highlight!
The famous Bethmännchen, a sweet marzipan pastry, are a must during the Advent season. They pair perfectly with a cup of hot apple wine, an essential in Frankfurt – especially on cold winter days.
