Tips & Advice

  • Dress warmly, because the Christmas market is held outdoors among the stalls, with only the workshop and the Christmas tent offering cover.
  • Leave backpacks, bags and umbrellas in the free lockers if you go into the exhibitions, as they aren't allowed in the galleries.
  • Bring the kids to the Christmas workshop or the tent to make paper cuts, and look out for Santa Claus around the market.
