Surrounded by the hills of the Black Forest, a visit
to the traditional Baden-Baden Christmas Market is like strolling
through a scene from a winter fairytale. Situated at the start of the
town’s famous Lichtentaler Allee, visitors will encounter a labyrinth of
festive stalls, where the aromas of mulled wine and gingerbread fill the
air. The romantic atmosphere is heightened by the thousands of
shimmering Christmas lights and the entire experience is capped with a
choice program of entertainment, catering for both young and old.
The market stretches from the start of the Kurhaus colonnade and weaves
its way past the exclusive boutiques towards Baden-Baden’s impressive
Kurhaus building. As well as two carousels for the children, visitors
can expect a rich offering of Christmas arts and crafts from the 60 or
so stalls.
Items such as handcrafts, wooden toys and decorative candles will be on
offer along with scarves and a wide selection of silver, amber and
designer jewellery - perfect for Christmas gifts or even for treating
yourself.
Choirs and musical bands will be on hand to entertain the visitors from
the open-air stage with a festive mix of seasonal songs and carols. The
visitors’ appetite will also be entertained by the large selection of
culinary Christmas treats.
The exclusive boutiques in the Kurhaus colonnade will also be joining in
with the spirit of things. Here you will find an excellent source of
ideas for Christmas gifts. The range on offer here includes top quality
jewellery, exclusive men’s and women’s wear, fashion accessories,
antiques and exquisite Meissen porcelain. You will also be able to find
fine confectionaries at the patisserie.
A particular attraction of Christmas in Baden-Baden is the ‘living
nativity’. The sound of bleating sheep and the scent of fresh hay will
lead you to the idyllic life-sized crib in front of the Kurhaus. |
