Bright light gloss, the smell of mulled wine and freshly roasted almonds, contemplative trombone sounds, a friendly get together: it's Christmas Market in Ulm.

Like in the last years the fair will attract more than one million people from all over the world - and these visitors won't be disapointed. Directly in front of the world's highest church spire over 100 festively decorated wooden stands built a 'little town within the city of Ulm'. Arts and crafts articles, toys for the young and old, glass manufacturing performances - to name just a few things - will guarantee unforgettable hours.

A rich selection of sesonal and regional melas is also given. Not to forget the roundabouts for the children and the sheep pen with live animals. The shopping areas in Ulm and Neu-Ulm are illuminated idyllically, which gets you in the mood to stroll around. Just take your time to enjoy one of the organ concerts at the Minster or in other churches and concert halls - it will be worth it! Interesting programs for children are offered by the theatres, museums and at the Stadthaus on Minster Square.
