"CHRISTMAS LIKE NOWHERE ELSE"

The Grand Central Hub

Home to the magnificent Grand Sapin (Giant Christmas Tree), which is the centerpiece of the city's Christmas decorations. Look out for the captivating light and music show that happens hourly in the late afternoon/evening. This square also hosts the Village du Partage (Sharing Village), which features charity stalls.

The Original Christkindelsmärik

This is the oldest and original Christmas market, dating back to 1570. It offers a very traditional feel and is one of the best spots for finding classic Christmas ornaments and handmade goods.

Place Kléber

Set right beneath the majestic Strasbourg Cathedral. The illuminated Gothic architecture provides a stunning backdrop, especially at night. You can also find a carousel at Place du Château.

La Petite France (Place Benjamin Zix & Square Louise Weiss)

Stroll through the romantic, half-timbered houses of La Petite France. The markets here are smaller but exceptionally charming, with the reflections of the lights twinkling on the canals.
