Cologne - Celebrating Christmas In Cologne
Cologne has a reputation for having some of the best and oldest Christmas markets in Germany. Having been, I definitely agree and you can easily spend 2 days exploring everything they have to offer.Like most other European cities, Cologne has a few main Christmas markets, then some very small local ones in the suburban type communities. We’re not going to focus on those because they are tiny, mostly food-oriented. But don’t worry, because Cologne’s main markets will keep you plenty busy during your stay.Cologne’s Cathedral is a stand-out attraction and makes a beautiful backdrop for the biggest and most popular Christmas market in Cologne. Expect hundreds of twinkling lights, a large Christmas tree, and over 150 red-roofed huts selling everything from tea to sausages, gluhwein to ornaments, carvings, chocolate, toys, and more. It gets pretty busy in the evening but the atmosphere and lights make nighttime the best time to explore this stunning and traditional Christmas market in Cologne.
