Frankfurt

the Frankfurt Christmas Market
25.11. – 22.12.2024

Starting at Roßmarkt, the Christmas market stretches along the Zeil all the way down to Römerberg and the Main River. Visitors can expect elaborately decorated stalls offering handicrafts and Christmas specialties from around the world, as well as a towering Christmas tree at Römerberg, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Old Town and Paulsplatz.

There are also many festive stalls at Hauptwache. A visit is well worth it, as Frankfurt's largest shopping street, the Zeil, located just opposite Hauptwache, invites visitors for some holiday shopping.

A special highlight are the traditional Frankfurt specialties, which you absolutely must try!

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.
