November 27 – December 24, 2024

The Dresden Striezelmarkt is regularly voted the favorite Christmas market in German-speaking countries. The 590th edition will take place in 2024, making it the oldest Christmas market in Germany. This visitor magnet attracts visitors with superlatives such as the world’s largest 14.61-meter-high step pyramid from the Ore Mountains, what is probably the world’s largest walk-in candle arch, and a free daily Christmas cultural program for young and old.
