About
Münster's most traditional Christmas market fills the inner courtyard of the town hall, the Platz des Westfälischen Friedens. Stalls focus on jewellery, crafts and decorations, with food and drink stands alongside. A nostalgic carousel keeps younger children happy. The decorated arcades of the Prinzipalmarkt are right next door. The other five city-centre markets are an easy walk away.
