But first, let’s take a look at what makes Christmas in Germany so special—after all, it’s one of the most iconic countries for festive celebrations.
Christmas Traditions in Germany
Christmas in Germany is filled with centuries-old traditions that emphasize warmth, family, and joy. The pre-Christmas period, known as Advent, begins around the end of November or the beginning of December. One cherished tradition is the Advent calendar, which allows you to open a small gift—usually a piece of chocolate—each day from December 1st until Christmas Eve on December 24th.
On December 6th, known as St. Nicholas Day, children receive slightly bigger gifts, and by the time Christmas Eve rolls around, the excitement is in full swing. Families gather for a small, traditional meal, and gifts are exchanged. The following days—December 25th and 26th—are usually reserved for larger family gatherings, complete with a feast (often featuring roast goose) and even more gift-giving. After the hustle and bustle of the previous days, December 26th is usually a time to relax and recover.
One of the most beloved traditions in Germany is the Christmas market. Almost every major city has a festive market set up in the town square, featuring stalls selling arts, crafts, holiday decorations, sweets, and of course, the famous mulled wine. These markets are a feast for the senses and provide a cozy place to enjoy the Christmas spirit.
Now, let’s dive into two products that capture the essence of this festive season and are perfect for adding to your holiday shopping list!
