Christmas Markets in Berlin
Oh, merry Christmas time in the capital. Here you will find the most beautiful Christmas markets in Berlin in 2025. more
The Christmas market in the Kulturbrauerei attracts visitors with its contemplative atmosphere, a warm and cozy ambience and a daily cultural program.
The Lucia Christmas Market is popular with Berliners and visitors for good reason: the beautiful building ensemble of the Kulturbrauerei with its two large courtyards is perfect for a romantic Christmas world - in the middle of the big city. The castle-like ambience of the old brick buildings of the Kulturbrauerei gives the Nordic market a particularly atmospheric backdrop.
The name Lucia comes from the Latin lux - the light. Saint Lucia, the bringer of light, is celebrated in Sweden and now in many other countries around the world every year on December 13 with a procession of young women. With her wreath of lights made of lingonberry or fir branches on her head, Lucia walks through the darkness singing - to bring a little light into the darkness of winter and as a symbol of hope.
The Christmas market in Prenzlauer Berg stands out with its unusual offerings with a Nordic touch. In the cold season, visitors can warm themselves by the Swedish fire or with one of the fur coats preheated by the wood-burning stove. Finnish glögi, Swedish glögg or mulled wine provide warmth from the inside. There is also moose sausage, kötbullar, Finnish waffles and other Christmas treats.
In the afternoon hours, the Lucia Christmas market is particularly popular with families with children. Santa Claus drops by every day and listens to the little ones' most fervent wishes. As well as having fun on the chain carousel, star ladder and knight's castle, children can also try their hand at making presents in arts and crafts workshops.
