Walk from Hamburg Central train station towards City Hall and you'll soon bump into the merry stalls on shopping street Spitalerstraße and nearby Gerhard-Hauptmann-Platz square. Both markets provide Christmas-shoppers with replenishments in the form of mulled wine, hot chocolate and baked goods. What's more, you'll find a large number of stalls selling handicrafts, design and art, making these centrally located markets a perfect place for finding unique Christmas gifts. For a more spiritual experience, head to the Christmas market at the nearby St. Petri church.
Due to ongoing health restrictions, it is currently unclear what form Hamburg's Christmas markets will take in 2020. For now, please consider the above a preview of what's to come in 2021.
