Christmas market at Alexanderplatz

Christmas cheer reigns on one of Berlin's most famous squares when the wooden stalls decked out with lights transform Alexanderplatz into a winter village, redolent of chestnuts and punch in December. On these days, the hustle and bustle of the square gives way to the cosy, wintery atmosphere of the Berlin Christmas market.

Europe's largest Erzgebirge pyramid

The largest Erzgebirge pyramid in Europe with its pink lighting is the visual highlight of the Advent market on Alexanderplatz. Enjoy mulled wine and Thuringian bratwurst on the ground floor, while the tower brass band on the second floor provides a musical Christmas atmosphere. You can admire the craftsmanship of the exhibitors at 100 stands and enjoy culinary delights.
