Erfurt Christmas market: A classic without a home beer offer!

The anticipation for the Christmas market in Erfurt is already big! In the middle of the festive preparations, however, visitors have to accept a bitter setback: The popular “Heimathafen” brewery will not be represented this year with its own booth. Jan Schlennstedt, the master of the brewery, said in an interview with Thuringia24 that the organization and bureaucratic hurdles make it impossible to offer the specialty "Erfurt Schittchen" directly on site. "Can you bend," he said of the difficulties associated with the tender for the bar of alcoholic beverages. In addition to the elaborate paper stuff, the unfavorable framework such as the regulation that stall operators are only allowed to serve mulled wine or beer are further stumbling blocks for the brewery, which is forced to switch to alternative sales in the city center.

Erfurt Christmas market is a highlight of the Advent season

The Erfurt Christmas market, which will take place from November 26 to December 22, 2024, is a popular destination not only for the locals, but also for visitors from all over the country. At over 200 stands, regional products such as the famous Erfurt Schittchen, Thuringian sausages and handicraft products are offered. The historic old town of Erfurt is transformed into a festive Christmas landscape on this occasion that makes people's hearts beat faster. The 25 meter high Christmas tree and the lovingly designed Christmas crib with hand -carved figures are particularly impressive.

The city of Erfurt invites everyone to get lost in the festive atmosphere of the market and to enjoy the traditional melodies and the seductive fragrance of mulled wine and gingerbread. The city has set itself the goal of offering visitors an unforgettable experience, and even if the "Erfurt Schittchen" will not be available directly on the market, the thirsty Christmas market visitors can find out safely in the surrounding shops.
