Lüneburg, a Hanseatic town near Hamburg
that dates back more than 1,000 years, is the
setting for one of northern Germany’s prettiest
Christmas markets. There’s something
for everyone in the market square outside
the historical town hall, from festive wooden
decorations and homemade beeswax candles
to the town’s traditional saltstone lamps.
Don’t miss the historical Christmas market
on 6 and 7 December, when the aromas of
cinnamon, spices and sweet chestnuts waft
through the town’s narrow medieval streets.
It’s like stepping back into the 16th century,
with traders and craftsmen plying old-time
wares such as pottery, hand-wrought pieces
and felt bags.
