Description

The Christmas Market at Cologne Cathedral stretches across Roncalliplatz at the foot of the cathedral. At the heart of the open-air market is a large, festively decorated Christmas tree topped with a sparkling canopy of starry lights. The market offers handicrafts and delicious seasonal treats. The experience is enhanced by a festive stage program featuring more than 100 free events. These include activities like puppet shows, face painting, and theater performances for children.
