About Fürth Christmas Market

The Fürth Christmas Market on the central Fürther Freiheit is one of the most atmospheric Advent markets in Middle Franconia. Around 40 stalls invite you daily to stroll among original gift ideas, Christmas tree decorations, and festive treats on the festively decorated square. Directly attached is a lively medieval market, where candle makers, glass and blacksmith artists, potters, and felt makers demonstrate their crafts at around 25 historical stalls and offer food and drinks according to old recipes. The landmark of the market is one of Bavaria's largest Christmas pyramids, which towers around 14 meters high in the neighboring Dr.-Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage. Daily fire shows and a children's program make the market an experience for the whole family.
