KASSEL FAIRY TALE CHRISTMAS MARKET

FROM 24.11. TO 30.12. DAILY* FROM 11 A.M. TO 8 P.M.
- GASTRONOMY OPEN UNTIL 10 P.M. 

 

...where is the most beautiful Christmas market ever? We can't say for sure what the dancing snowflakes are saying - but one thing is clear: the most magical Christmas market shines in Kassel! Because only here has the pre-Christmas hustle and bustle always been with the world-famous stories of the Brothers Grimm. Every year, a different one of the popular fairy tales takes center stage.
In 2025 it is - who would have thought it - Mother Hulda!

 

This year, the fairytale Christmas market will open on November 24 and will run until December 30, inviting visitors to spend romantic hours together and enjoy convivial evenings with friends and colleagues. In addition to hot mulled wine and the scent of almonds, you can of course expect everything else that has made the Kassel Fairytale Christmas Market the most popular of its kind in Hesse: Between Königsplatz and Friedrichsplatz, Kassel's city center is transformed into a sparkling sea of lights, which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of from the Ferris wheel. In the cozy fairytale forest, you can spend the evening in a rustic atmosphere, while the world's largest fairytale pyramid greets you from afar. The popular fairytale slide is back again this year, inviting you to take a rapid slide down the stairway! 

 

If you are still looking for original gift ideas, you are guaranteed to find something in the fairy-tale decorated stalls - and you can also satisfy almost every culinary wish at the many food stalls.
