CHRISTMAS MARKET IN NEUSS
November 20 - December 23 2024
The unique atmosphere of a traditional German Christmas market continues to cast ever more visitors from all over the world under its spell each year. Historic Christmas Markets held in cities and smaller towns throughout the country are becoming increasingly popular, due to the enchanting festive season atmosphere they evoke.
The Christmas Market, Weihnachtsmarkt, in Neuss is very traditional, cosy and well set on the Münsterplatz in the shadow of the Basilica. Take a break from hectic Christmas shopping at one of the stands selling artistic wares, tasty morsels and a variety of perfect individual gifts for friends and family.
A stage at the Christmas market offers a wide variety of entertainment while many pretty lights create a festive atmosphere.
Try too, a tasty, piping hot mulled wine, Glühwein, against the cold. Or some delicious traditional bakes such as gingerbread.
