Found here is a Christmas Market with roots going all the way back to the 14th century and held on Marienplatz. The Munich Market features old-fashioned Bavarian Christmas gifts such as wood carvings, gingerbread from Nuremberg and some quite exquisite glassware, genuine bee wax candles, crib figurines, chimney sweeps made out of plum and almond, and more.
Music lovers will enjoy visiting Munich’s town hall where, from the balcony, they can enjoy a lovely alpine Christmas concert each year. Meanwhile, kids from age 6 to 12 will enjoy the Town Hall “Heavenly Workshop,” which features arts & crafts and baking Christmas foods such as special Christmas figures. Not only that all of these and many b other children’s events are completely free.
If you want to create your own authentic manger, then you should be sure to visit the Kripperlmarkt where you can do just that. Or if you want something completely different, visit the toll wood, Munich’s ethnic festival. There you’ll find tents offering a wide variety of international musicians, performances, drama groups, live music, and a huge selection of fine art.
There are more than 20 Christmas Markets spread throughout Munich, each with its own unique elements to entice you to spend a wonderful day just wondering and enjoying the festive atmosphere.
