Christmas Market in Munich, Germany 🇩🇪
The municipal Munich Christmas Market (Münchner Christkindlmarkt) will take place from Monday, November 27 to Sunday, December 24, 2023 at Marienplatz and Rindermarkt. The traditional Christmas market is an event of the Department of Labor and Economic Affairs (RAW) of the City of Munich.
Since 1972, the original Munich Christkindlmarkt, which dates back to the 14th century, has been held on Marienplatz. After a two-year Corona break, 135 merchandise and gastronomy stalls were back at the market in 2022. The program included Advent music from the town hall balcony, the Krampuslauf or the Himmelswerkstatt for children.
The heavenly workshop Himmelswerkstatt for children aged six to twelve is a little paradise for young craftspeople – crafting fun for free is the name of the game here. At the Krampuslauf (Krampus run), there is no need to be afraid of the creepy creatures and shaggy fellows. Every day, live Bavarian Stubenmusik (traditional folk music), brass bands and choirs set the mood for the Advent season from the town hall balcony. If you want to learn more about the history of the Christkindlmarkt, you can book a guided tour of the Christkindlmarkt at Marienplatz.
Venue: Around Marienplatz (main square) and in the Fußgängerzone (pedestrian street)
Date: 27 November to 24 December, 2023

The complex on the square in Germany is very distinctive: there is a pillar of the Virgin Mary in the square, topped by a statue of the Golden Virgin Mary, she holds the scepter in her left hand, and the baby in her right hand, holy and dignified. The magnificent Gothic building on the north side of the square is the new Munich City Hall, where you can enjoy the fun puppet dance of the City Hall Bell Tower every 11 and 12 noon.
The German Plaza Maria was built in 1158 and is the largest and most important square in Munich. Because Munich's new and old town halls are around the square, Maria Square has the city of Munich's "city living room", which is now a transportation hub in Munich, and a place for cultural activities and civic leisure and entertainment.
It's a magical feeling to visit the Christmas Market At Marienplatz in Winter.
Old building, well preserved, worth a visit, traffic is quite convenient, easy to find
The scenery is beautiful, the fun is very strong, and the price is very high! I have been there once and it is really good. Everyone has the opportunity to play together.
Munich's of course downtown, majestic architecture, crowds.
