Between Grimmaische Straße and Salzgäßchen, the historic Christmas market at the Naschmarkt invites you to take a journey back in time.
Medieval market stalls offer classic Christmas market specialties, as well as hand-baked bread from clay ovens and hot mead in clay cups. Particular attention is paid to the ancient arts and crafts traditions, which are demonstrated on site.
As night falls, a unique, ancient atmosphere emerges between the Stock Exchange and the Old Town Hall. The Christmas market at the Naschmarkt is a must for anyone who loves traditional and rustic fare.

The dates for 2026 are subject to change.
