Atmospheric lights shine again this year in front of Benrath Palace in the south of Düsseldorf, because then the forecourt turns into a small Christmas paradise. The Christmas market in the unique setting is the perfect destination for the pre-Christmas season – magical artists, musicians and traditional, historical and original Christmas market stalls invite you to linger, stroll and dream. A unique lighting concept was developed especially for the Christmas market – thousands of lights illuminate the eyes of young and old Christmas market visitors at Benrath Palace.

That is why we have selected eleven Christmas markets in Munich for you that are particularly beautiful (and hopefully not so well attended). From the vegan sausage stand at the fairy tale bazaar to the warming fire bowls during the winter magic in the West Park.
