The old town of Hildesheim has proud Christmas market traditions. Amidst old half-timbered houses and UNESCO World Heritage-listed churches, Hildesheim has plenty of Christmas spirit.
The Christmas market offers amusements, Christmas shopping for the gold medal and the finest German delicacies."
From the last week of November until Christmas Eve, the Hildesheim Christmas Market is held. The old town has roots stretching back more than 1000 years, and it is this very part of town that provides the setting for the town's Christmas market. It is decorated with Christmas decorations and lights, and throughout the Christmas month there are concerts and Christmas events for young and old.
In front of the Knochenhaueramtshaus, one of the world's most beautiful half-timbered houses, you will find numerous stalls with handicrafts, Christmas treats and mulled wine. The St Michaelis Church and the Mariendom Cathedral, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites, are also located next to the Christmas market.
With its location just south of Hanover, Hildesheim is centrally located in Germany and can therefore also be experienced in combination with other stays in Germany, such as the Harz Mountains or Hanover.
