Altstadt Heidelberg

The Christmas market in the romantic city of Heidelberg offers the perfect blend of tradition, winter wonderland and enchantment. Covering seven different locations in the Old Town, Heidelberg’s Christmas market radiates pure festive magic. 

One of the most romantic Christmas markets in Germany

The scent of hot roasted almonds mulled wine and cinnamon fills the winding streets of Heidelberg's Old Town as the Christmas Market takes over the quarter. Traditional and festively decorated wooden houses fill Bismarckplatz, Anatomiegarten, Universitätsplatz, Marktplatz and Kornmarkt, offering everything from Christmas baubles and decorations to handmade crafts and German culinary specialities.

Over on the Kornmarkt, the Little Winter Wood (Winterwäldchen) offers visitors a magical, wintry paradise of peace that will rival any fairytale setting. The inner courtyard of the city’s castle, one of the many castles in Germany, acts as a picturesque backdrop for the Christmas market, where the Advent excursion is unforgettable. 

Underneath the castle, on Karlsplatz, one of most beautiful ice-skating rinks is set up, where visitors can listen to lively festive music and skate to their heart’s content in the lead-up to the national holiday.
