Frankfurt Christmas Market

***I AM NOT the host

Starting at Roßmarkt, the Christmas market stretches along the Zeil promenade all the way down to Römerberg and the River Main. Visitors may 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 St Paul's Square.

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.

When at the Frankfurt Christmas Market, make sure to sample the many traditional local specialties.

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.
