Frankfurt Christmas Markets: Germany’s Modern City with a Medieval Heart | Christmas in Europe
Check out this fantastic video!
Frankfurt transforms at Christmas. Known as Germany’s “Mainhattan” for its skyline, the city hides a magical old soul when December arrives. Behind the skyscrapers, Frankfurt’s Christmas markets light up with tradition, history, and festive spirit.
In this episode, join me as I explore:
🎄 The Römer Christmas Market – one of Germany’s oldest
🍷 Glühwein in Thurn & Taxis Palace courtyard
🌈 Frankfurt’s unique Pink Christmas Market
🎡 The buzzing Hauptwache & Rossmarkt
🌆 Rooftop Christmas Market at Konstablerwache with skyline views
🥔 German Christmas food – from Kartoffelpuffer to Franconian wine
Plus, tips for extra experiences: walking tours, Frankfurt’s apple wine taverns in Alt-Sachsenhausen, and the famous Kleinmarkthalle food market.
This was the start of my Christmas river cruise journey through Germany and France.
