Every year, a large Christmas market takes place in the old town of Spandau - with a program as colorful as the lavishly decorated Christmas tree.
Spandau's old town is the perfect setting for a nostalgic Christmas market. In Berlin's largest continuous pedestrian zone, many huts and stalls nestle in small alleys and cobblestone streets. A nativity scene with live animals adds to the special atmosphere.
Over the years, the Christmas market's offerings have become increasingly international. Visitors will find art and unique gift ideas from all continents - such as perfumes from the Middle East, Christmas decorations from Poland or clothing made from Peruvian alpaca wool. The range of sweet treats and savory delicacies is just as diverse.
