The main Stuttgart Christmas Market is pretty good. It's quite large, so there's a lot to see, but…read moreit's also a bit crowded and overwhelming. I also though the food options left a lot to be desired, as most of the things we bought to eat were just mediocre at best. This is more of a market for those who like lights, crafts, and rides. Oh, and of course, drinking mulled wine! Each of the little booths are decorated with whimsical holiday themes, and the proprietors go all out! I had the most fun looking at the rooftops of all of the booths. Food was mediocre for the most part, and there wasn't anything special on offer. We had garlic bread and mushrooms that honestly weren't even eating. Expect to find all the same old, same old Christmas Market foodstuffs (fried potatoes, potato pancakes, dipped marshmallows, etc.). Since so many famous car manufacturers are located in town, there's a free walkthrough light display in an adjacent park. It's fun, but is basically a light-up ad for cars, LOL.

Dating back more than 300 years to as early as 1692, the Stuttgart Christmas market is one of the…read morebiggest and oldest in Europe. Certainly larger than the ones I have seen this year in Baden-Baden, Colmar, Mulhouse and Basel! Similar vendors, of course. Glühwein is everywhere. Sausages are grilled here and there. Baked goods. Trinkets. Baubles for decorating your Christmas tree. Spices. Candles. Hats and gloves. Carved wooden toys. Candies. I have a new cashmere scarf (it was COLD!), some cookies, some fancy chocolates and a lot of memories. Stuttgart is a big city and the size of the market reflects it. Lots of people. Lots of food. Lots of hot wine. Don't forget to look up. Many of the kiosks have very elaborate decorations on their roof. [Review 21255 overall - 259 in Germany - 220 of 2024.]
