8Nuremberg, Germany – A Taste of Authentic Christmas

If you imagine the “classic” German Christmas market, chances are you’re picturing Nuremberg. Its Christkindlesmarkt is famous worldwide for its nostalgic atmosphere and strict focus on quality, authenticity, and handcrafted goods.

Try the legendary Nuremberg bratwurst served on crusty rolls, pair it with warm glühwein, and pick up traditional prune men figurines—quirky little characters made from dried fruit. A visit feels like stepping into a centuries-old holiday ritual.
