Ulm Christmas Market
Ulmer Weihnachtsmarkt
A large Christmas market held on the cathedral square, with more than a hundred wooden stalls ringing the Gothic spire. It is a reason to visit Ulm in winter.
The Ulm Christmas Market is held on the square in front of the cathedral. It is one of the largest Christmas markets in Baden-Württemberg, with more than a hundred wooden stalls selling mulled wine, grilled sausages, gingerbread, handmade wooden carvings, and Christmas decorations. At night the lights and the soaring cathedral spire complement each other. The market also features life-size nativity scenes and a children's area. It usually runs from late November to around December 22. Weekends are very crowded, so weekday evenings are recommended. Mulled wine cups carry a deposit, which can be refunded or kept as a souvenir.
Opening hours
Approx. late Nov–late Dec, daily 10:00–20:30
