About
Bad Münstereifel has kept its town walls, medieval gates and half-timbered houses along the Erft, a perfect setting for a Christmas market. Stalls are spread through the old town, especially Marktstraße, which is also home to the City Outlet stores, so market browsing and shopping go together easily. A few evenings run late until 10 pm, such as the 'long night' on 5 December. On weekdays the market only opens at 1 pm, so plan an afternoon or weekend visit.
Opening hours
The organiser's own pages disagree about 22 Nov (Totensonntag), 24 Dec (closed or 11 am–4 pm) and 27 Dec (possibly closed); check before you go.
