GERMAN CHRISTMAS MARKET & STREET FOOD in Nuremberg!

[@jameshitchens9045]

I was in Nurnberg for 3.5 years 1988-1991 while in The U.S. Army. Loved it so much i got a German fishing license to get out in nature.

@@jameshitchens9045 my wife and I moved back to the states in August 1988. We spent 1.5 years living in Fürth, with her being stationed at Nuremburg and I was stationed at Erlangen. Best times in our memory.

Definitely, the Christmas market in Nuremberg is the best one!

Imagine how this Christmas market looks at night..... with snow and lights...🤩🤩🤩

[@ramonaoneil3135]

I used to live in Nürnberg, you want to avoid the Christkindlmarkt after dark, it is SUPER CROWDED. It takes forever just to get from one end of each aisle of stands to the other end. Go throughout the daytime when it’s less crowded. Check opening hours online. The church at Hauptmarkt where all the stands are (Frauenkirche/Our lady’s church) starts the Männleinlaufen at noon, it’s when the figures of the mechanical clock start moving. Also, compared to other Christmas market throughout Germany the Christkindlmarkt in Nürnberg isnt even all that great. Almost every town and city in Germany hosts their own Christmas market and they can hold their own as well. Often they have more rides as well. If you opt to get a hot beverage from a stand they impose an extra fee for the mug. Most ppl keep the mug as a souvenir. The mug states the year and city of the Christmas market it was from. Ppl love to collect them.

Oh how I've been waiting for this series. Bavaria, my favorite place ever. Nothing better than the food at the Christmas markets and I could almost taste those brats. So good to see the crowds were not overwhelming (we were there on the first weekend opened and the throngs of people made it impossible to get near most of the stalls). Just makes me want to go back. Great video.

[@KeepGoingPlaces]

Agreed, Tommye! We loved Bavaria Germany. Buckle in because there’s 4 more videos coming from our Bavarian road trip! Some Christmas Markets were busy, but this one was less busy, which was nice. The crowds really have a big impact on the experience so it’s always exciting when you find a market that’s just the right level of busy. Glad you enjoyed this video! -Jordan

I took my wife to see where i was stationed in Ansbach in December 2019 then specifically for Nuremberg Xmas market. It is truly a fairy tale xmas surrounded by the walls of the old town. We had also visited markets in Frankfurt and Berlin. By far this is the best. This view was also shared by a young California couple whom had just visited Berlin market and wanted to spend more time in Nuremberg after realizing how beautiful the experience was. P.S. in 2001 we visited the Trier, Germany xmas market, while small, it had rows of vendors, roasted chest nuts in air, giant soft snow flakes, and coke trucks with Santa on side.

[@KeepGoingPlaces]

That sounds so lovely!

My wife and I lived in Fürth, which is near to Nuremburg, in 1987-88. She was stationed in Ansbach but attached in Nuremburg and I was stationed in Erlangen. Those 2years were some of the most amazing and fun years (my second tour of Germany, first was Wildflecken in 1980-81). We are going back to Nuremburg in 2 weeks (December 2024) for the Christkindlmarkt and celebrate our 41st anniversary.

Hey Dear, i'm from Nueremberg. I was so sad to see that you visit us in the time the castle was getting a renovation. I can tell ya we finished it. Hope you come back someday to see the hole beauty. I have to say your documentary about the christmas market is the best one from tourists i have seen.

[@IvorsTravels]

Just discovered your channel. After more than 20 years of visiting Christmas markets until the advent of Covid I was delighted and more than a little sad to see you enjoying yourselves in Nurnberg. Until last week I was scheduled to travel to these wonderful places once more. The upsurge in Covid infections and the subsequent cancellation of the markets, including Nurnberg, put paid to that. Fortunately there are videos like your own to console me. I will check out you channel further and see how your trip progressed. Thanks.

[@stevesmithing1552]

I really enjoyed your video on the Nuremburg Christmas Market (Weihnachtsmarkt). I took my family to the German Christmas Markets in 2016 (spent 5 days in Nuremburg) and again in 2019. I think you did an excellent job pointing out some of the delights of the Nuremburg Christmas Market. Keep up the good work on your videos. Merry Christmas 2021!!!

I’ve been to the Nuremberg Christmas Market twice in the last three years, including last year. It’s my favorite of all of the markets. And the kartoffelpuffers at that same stand are my favorite food in the world. And I’m not even joking. I eat them about 10 times in the three days I’m there. And the last time I almost cried because I knew it was over. As for the Feuerzangenbowle,, the one with the flame is a few stalls up the road from the kartoffelpuffer stand. You can’t miss it. There’s always hundreds of people around it, and there’s a giant flame.

[@MikeM91320]

So glad I came across your video. My wife and I are heading to Munich this Sept for 3 weeks and plan on a 2 day outing to Nuremberg. I hope we can get the potato panckaes and the rum drink as well at that time. We do realize that Oktoberfest will be going on, so looking forward to beer and pretzels for sure.

I so much enjoyed this video guys. My very first memory of Nuremberg was when my dad took me to my very first Christmas market . We lived in Giessen, Germany because my Dad was in the US Army at the time. When I was stationed in Schweinfurt, Germany (As I served in the US Army) I would visit Nuremberg often The last time I was in Nuremberg was in June of 2019 when my wife and I and three other couples visited beautiful Nuremberg. I am planning on taking my wife and kids to the Christmas market in Dec 2021 (hopefully). :). Great jobs guys. BTW, the food was killing me, I so can't wait to get back. As soon as the EU opens I am on the next plane out lol.

Feuerzangenbowle is a party drink and normally celebrated together at home. You have one big pot with wine, a huge sugar cone on a metal over it, you pour some liquor on the sugar and light it. Therefore it is not realy possible at a market. Older Germans reminds it always to the famous film "Die Feuerzangenbowle" with Heinz Rühmann where 4 old guys sit around a Feuerzangenbowle and share some stories about school days. The film is still watched by students, for example every summer there is a public movie screening in the university town of Tuebingen.
