- Exploring the Nuremberg Christmas Market - Travel Vlog | Is it the best Christmas Market in Europe??
After a cold and rainy day at the Munich Christmas Markets, we decided to catch a train 100 miles (160 km) north to the city of Nuremberg (Nürnberg) to get a little Christmas market redemption at the Nuremberg Christmas Market (Nürnberger Christkindlesmarkt) which is arguably the most famous (with around 2 million visitors each year) and some would even say the best Christmas market in all of Europe! After experiencing it firsthand, we can see why this market ranks near the top of pretty much every traveler's must-visit Christmas market list. The second that you arrive at the Hauptmarkt - the central square where the market takes place - the smell of warm Glühwein (mulled wine), fresh Lebkuchen (gingerbread), and Nürnberg Rostbratwurst (grilled sausage) take over your senses. The red and white candy-cane-like rooftops on the 180+ neatly aligned festive stalls look to be straight out of a European Hallmark movie, and the twin, 50-feet (15-meter) high Christmas trees on either side of The Frauenkirche ("Church of Our Lady") are the final touches that make the Nürnberger Christkindlesmarkt pure Christmas magic.

== About Us ==
We’re Matt & Nat, a part-time, non-remote travel couple based out of Nashville, TN.
We launched in 2021 by visiting all 50 US states & documented our entire journey on our Blog & here on CZcams! After spending a full year focused on such a defined goal, 2022 left us feeling a little lost & wondering "What's next?". We continued traveling & creating vlogs but always with the "What's next?" question lingering. During one of our trips, we came across the book “1,000 Places to See Before You Die” & were immediately drawn in by it & knew that it had to be a part of our adventures. So, in January 2023 we officially launched our “1,000 Places To See Before You Die” series where we’ve set out to see as many of the “1,000 Places To See Before You Die”… before we die!
We hope you’ll join us on the adventure & find some adventures of your own along the way! And remember... It’s better to see something once (even if only for a moment) than to hear about it a thousand times.
Xmas paradise in Nürnberg beautiful city.
We loved Nuremberg Christmas market!! So much fun!!
The drinking and eating out of real dishes instead of take-away disposables and charging a deposit is so awesome! I wish we did that in the states at our festivals! Nat and her giant pretzel lol 😆 I love it. These markets look like so much fun to visit! 🎉
Cool the video is very impressive!👍👍👍
Thank you!
My Top 5 Christmas 🎄 Markets are:
Strasbourg
Aachen
Cologne
Nürnberg
Dresden
🎉
Hamburg, Munich,Vienna and Rothenburg,Colmar,Breslau and Prague got great Christmas 🎄 Markets as well.
Ah! This was fantastic and made me miss Germany so much! I was in Darmstadt (just outside of Frankfurt) for 2.5 years. Christmas time is magical in Germany. Thanks for showing us these two. I had never been to either! ❤
So many great memories of Germany 🇩🇪 Thanks!!!! 🥰
Again, thanks for the descriptive notes of the food tasting! Awesome work. We’ve been to so many Oktoberfest but ever Christmas Market, will need to get there during this time now!
Aw, thanks so much for watching!!🥰🥰 The Christmas Markets are definitely a must! But so is Oktoberfest! Lol… We love both!
What a mouthwatering video 😋🤤 You can tell you were much happier without the rain & cold 🌧️ I think it was hilarious when Matt got lost, and said he felt like Kevin from Home Alone, following the wrong coat 😂 💀
🤣🤪 hahaha right?! It was hard editing this… I wanted was treats the whole time. Lol 😂 YES!!! The weather was such a game changer! 🙏🏼💗🥰 Made the whole experience wayyy better! Bahahaha right?! I wonder how long it would’ve taken him to realize he was following the wrong person! 🤣🤣🤣
So glad y'all had a good time at this one and I enjoyed watching after Christmas. Good eating and safe travels.
Nürnberg Christmas 🎄 Markets are more authentic in my opinion than in Munich.Both Cities are amazing
Great video this brought back a lot of memories from when I lived in Germany. I’ve been to the Nuremberg Christmas Market many times from when my dad was stationed in the Army.
Hi Matt & Natalie, loved this video! I wanted to let ya know in Washington DC if you ride the Metro subway, they too have the “golden rule” to ride to the right and walk on the left. And let me tell you, people will make it clear real quick how this rule works 😉
That was fun. Thanks Matt and Nat. When I saw that giant pretzel coming out of the machine, I said wow got to head back to the mustard dispenser.
It was raining when we were there. We went home early December 2019.
Nürnberg is the Toy Capital of Germany maybe of the World.nearly any Famous Toy Companys having their Factorys in and outside of Nürnberg
Loved this so much. Love watching your vlogs.
Aww thanks so much Taylor!! We appreciate you more than you know! 🥰 Merry Christmas in January! 🤣🎄😜
Here in Germany it doesn't mean anything negative if someone "stares" at you!
In fact, it's exactly the opposite...
Here, looking someone in the eye is a sign of respect and/or interest.
There is the sentence:
"The eyes are the window to the soul"...
So when you look into someone's eyes instead of looking at the ground, you have a "clear conscience"...
Long story short...
When we Germans "stare" at you, it's absolutely nothing negative👍
Best Wishes from Hamburg/Germany
Oh wow that’s so interesting. Thanks so much for sharing that! 🥰 Now we know! 🤣 We excited to be back in Germany for the Christmas markets again 🎄! Thanks for watching & for your comment!
I give this a big 🥨-up! Great tips and information you guys.
Bahaha 🤣 I’d definitely share that pretzel with y’all! 🥨 There was enough to go around for sure! Lol thanks so much friend! We appreciate y’all soo much! 🎉💗
Loved both your Christmas market vlogs, but this one was better because I felt happier since you weren't suffering from the cold rain! Would go just to eat & drink! Hope you came home with the mugs you liked. Hope I live long enough to see many more of your 1,000 adventures.
🤗❤️❤️👍👍
Great video - and I’m not one for Christmas markets normally, but would certainly go for those Lebkuchen! They looked amazing 🤩
Looked like a great time,minus the cold, but great work as always.

The Schmidt-Lebkuchen cookie company is located in Nuremburg and that’s where the lebkeuken has been made for over 90 years. I have several beautiful tins that contained the cookies from when we were stationed in Germany. I also have my beautiful Angel Topper that I bought in that market over 30 years ago.
Oh wow!!! How awesome is that!!! Those tins were absolutely beautiful! I bet your Angel topper is even prettier. So great that you still have them! That market was definitely our favorite! Such a beautiful town. Thanks so much for sharing that Karen! We appreciate you watching! 🥰
Matt you can call yourself to be a lucky 🍀 Man with Nat in your life
I love that you can keep the mugs if you want! That's a special souvenir if do say so!
Right?? We loved it too!
Went to Germany for 2 weeks for Christmas Markets. Started in Munich, las week in Karlsruhe. Went to Nuremberg, and several other cities! My husband is from Heidelberg, so we had to go to several places! Very cold! Had to keep getting Gluevine! Yum!
Germans aren’t easy Smile People at all but if they smile it comes from the Heart ❤️
All that food looked so good I agree with both on the mustard. The prices didn't seem that bad. As always great video and editing. Hopefully some day we will get to go until then we plan on as many places of the 1000 place off our list that are in the USA, Canada and Caribbean
It really was good… made me hungry the whole time I was editing! 🤣🤣 Yeah, we were pleasantly surprised with the prices!! Which is always nice! Haha We are soo excited to hear about all your adventures!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Hello, from Mt. Juliet, Tn love your channel its very fun.

Awesome video. Making me hungry again! 😂. Next time, also try a Germknoedel! Yum!
Hahaha It made me hungry while editing! 🤣 so wishing I had some of the goodies now! Lol ohhh we’ll have to look that up! Thanks for the recommendation & for watching!! 🥰
😂
You really must have a great appetite.
🤣🤣 🤷🏻♂️
Matt, did Uwe mention this as a must-see when we met y’all at the donkey sanctuary on Aruba? Cuz he lived there for many years. I got to join him for the last one! My opinion, the prettiest city in Germany.❤
Vienna crismas market is the best crismas market in this world.
You guys got me watching your older stuff because I'm leaving tomorrow morning for a road trip from NY to MN to visit my newly found biological family! You guys are so fun I almost wish I could take you with me! Stay well and blessed!
Awww thanks so much for watching & for being on this adventure with us! 🥰💗 We Hope you have an amazing roadtrip to visit your newly found biological family!! How awesome!! We are praying it goes amazing!! 🙏🏼💗💗
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I did! and it was amazing! I have a sister 21 years younger than me and she is totally saved. what more can I ask for , right? Love you for replying ❤
p.s. if it helps...my mom conceived me i the autumn after "the summer of love" in 1969
Where did you stay while doing the markets? Was there a place close by? Would LOVE to see those markets….. bucket list!
Hey Loey! Thanks so much for watching! We based out of Munich for our time at the Christmas markets since we visited the markets in Munich and Nuremberg. It’s a short 1hr train ride to Nuremberg from Munich.
"Feli from Germany" CZcams Channel said one of the things that Americans find weird about Germans is that they Stare 👀 and not even to be rude, it's just a thing there. So maybe staring at your gorgeous faces and not weirded out by vlogging 🤷🏼♀️
OH MY GOSH REALLY?!?! That honestly would make so much more sense!! Lol because no one was rude.. it was just crazy how many people just stared at us! I’ll have to look into that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 We were like do we have something on our face? I know this is weird pulling out a camera but it’s not THAT weird. 🤣🤣 Thanks so much for sharing that! That really made us laugh!
@annalisahamlett1334, are you following “ FelifromGermany”? too? ☺️
FYI: "illegally left mulled wine will be drunk at the expense of the customer" is what I think that sign said on the table.
Ohhhh bahahaha Thank you so much for the translation!! 🤣🙈🤷🏼♀️
We would have loved Nuremberg had it not been shoulder to shoulder people. Gotta agree though it's a must see and do.
Yea, it can definitely gets crowded! We visited on a weekday and got there early, so it wasn't too bad for us. Although by the time we were leaving (7:30pm) it was pretty busy! Thanks for watching!😊
Hi! Can you pay by card in the Christmas Market?
Hi guys. Would you recommend the Christmas market in Nuremberg or stuttgart?
We’ve never been to the Stuttgart markets, but we LOVE the Nuremberg markets!
for a free cookie that ain't bad ☺️
Right?! 🤣🤣🤣 You can’t beat a free cookie!!! Haha 🍪 🤷🏼♀️🤪
hey guys
HEY STEVE!!! 👋🏼👋🏼
What’s the penalty for public urination ? Result of charging for the toilet 😂
😂😂
Rule #1 for going to German Christmas Markets, try and lose 30 pounds before you go. Rule#2 wear stretchy pants because you will probably gain 50 pounds,
😂😂 So true! Lol
