The Duisburg Christmas market is an annual highlight that transforms the city center into an atmospheric, glittering sea of lights. With over a hundred lovingly decorated wooden huts, festively decorated fir trees and impressive light installations, the pre-Christmas season is heralded in. The scent of cinnamon and aniseed, paired with the smell of potato pancakes and speculoos, fills the air and contributes to the festive atmosphere. Traditional arts and crafts, original gifts and Christmas decorations can be discovered in the glow of the wooden huts. In addition, numerous rides make children's eyes sparkle year after year. The Duisburg Christmas market is an unforgettable experience that tourists should not miss.
