Beautiful German Christmas Market in Goslar, Germany 🇩🇪

We visit the gorgeous, historic Goslar Christmas Market which is tucked away at the base of the Harz Mountains to see what this German Christmas Market has for visitors! It's our first German Christmas Market outside of Hannover since living as Americans in Germany.

I’m here right now and your video was so helpful! Goslar is amazing. Thanks!

[@MYTravelBF]

Wonderful! We hope you enjoyed Goslar, especially with the Christmas market happening right now!

I was there last weekend. Goslar is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@MYTravelBF]

We're happy you could make it to Goslar and that you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@Handletaken4]

Glad you are documenting this

[@MYTravelBF]

Thank you for watching!

Goslar really is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany. I once was there staying over night in that hotel in a room where the door was even smaller than me. And I‘m 1.78m tall. But it was nice and beautiful.

[@MYTravelBF]

Wow! It’s definitely a gorgeous city that we want to go back to, especially once the weather is warmer!

[@Al69BfR]

@@MYTravelBF And when you’re there, don‘t miss out to visit the nearby cities like Bad Harzburg and Wernigerode or to visit the Broken in the Harz mountains.

Except the Karstadt in the middle of the city. That 19070s building is really ugly.

[@MYTravelBF]

@@SkandalRadar That one definitely is not the most appealing, but neither is the one in Hannover. Maybe someday 1970s architecture will looks historic and beautiful🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏽‍♀️

Goslar is also the ancestral seat of the industrial family of the large company Siemens (The Siemens house in Goslar is a beautiful half-timbered house). German Emperor Heinrich III, who is unforgettable with his "Walk to Canossa". His imperial palace still stands today. Like the old town of Goslar, the disused mine in Goslar (the oldest and largest mine in Europe) is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. The tunnels and ore processing plants on the Rammelsberg can still be visited today.

Thank you for sharing, and watching! We want to go back and visit more of the city and surrounding area, since we just went for the Christmas market.

Thanks to this video I'd like to pay a visit to Goslar as well. It looks charmy and cozy so to speak. Viel Spaß dude!

[@MYTravelBF]

You should visit Goslar! We'd love back when the weather is warmer and explore the Harz! Thank you for watching!

[@heha6984]

Wonderful pictures and impressions! Thanx a lot! 😃

Thank you very much!!

@@MYTravelBF I like you both, you are really authentic and your quiet happiness seems really authentic to me. Ich wünsche Euch noch eine wunderbare Adventszeit! Liebe Grüße!

This takes me back to when I grew up there. Delivered papers on most of those streets every Sunday morning. I hope you kept the mugs, they make new designs every year. My parents have all of them.

[@MYTravelBF]

Glad we could take you on a trip down memory lane! We did keep one of the mugs from the market! It's really cool they change them every year!

Goslar is a wonderful city and the christmas market is truely special. In terms of sausage I can recommend the Horse meat Bratwurst stand they have there every year. It's becoming kind a rare treat, but the city nearby of Clausthal, where I did my M. Sc. still had one of the few horse butchers left and they always used to have a stand on the Goslar christmas market. I wonder if they still do. Schneeballen is somewhat overrated imho... Dry and bland. Schmalzkuchen is way better.

[@MYTravelBF]

Fascinating! We’ve never tried horse meat and didn’t see it in at the Goslar Christmas Market, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t there. We had no idea that was a specialty.

fellow,Hi. top ,💯

[@MYTravelBF]

Thank you! We appreciated it!

[@peter_meyer]

Just a little correction. Goslar looks older than Hannover, but it isn't really.

[@MYTravelBF]

Thanks for the correction. We were referring to the old buildings in Goslar not being destroyed, whereas the ones in Hannover were.

[@kermitfrosch6559]

Goslar is older than Hannover. Goslar was first mentioned in a document around 922. Hanover in 1150 first.

[@peter_meyer]

@@kermitfrosch6559 "mentioned in a document..." doesn't mean it didn't exist before. I know the region of Goslar is known for mining for 3000 years, but when was there the first settlement?

[@kermitfrosch6559]

@@peter_meyer The earliest archeological finds near Goslar date back to 100,000-50,000 before Chr.

@@kermitfrosch6559 "near", yes.
