Wooden stalls, gingerbread and an old-town square made for lingering. Nuremberg is a classic Christmas-market escape: arrive with an appetite and leave time to wander beyond the stalls.

Destination background

It takes place during Advent in the Hauptmarkt, the central square in Nuremberg’s old town, and in adjoining squares and streets.
