Although the tradition of the Christmas market in Nuremberg has initially been associated with the square near St. Mary's Church, in our time, the whole city becomes one big Christmas market. Nuremberg Christkindlsmarkt is one of the oldest and indeed the most famous Christmas markets in the world. In Stadtle wooden stalls - made of wood and fabric, artisans sell traditional, often handmade Christmas decorations and sweets, especially the Nuremberg gingerbread cookies.
We start the walk from the Big Round Tower on the main street of the city, which leads to the old town through the courtyard of artisans and St. Lorenz Square, to the central shopping area of the town, where the largest Christmas market in Europe took place annually. On the way, we see the famous museum bridge, the monument "Ship of fools", dine in the tavern of St. Sebald and return to the beginning of the path through Schleifersteg and Charles Bridge.
