I was here with my husband on the 12th of December. Very excited to see the xmas market that some…read morepeople call "the most magical," the xmas twinkling star market of Wiesbaden. After purchasing the obligatory gluwein, my husband and I started our 2 hour march along the stalls. Having studied in this region 37 years ago, I was looking for the black forest wooden goods. I found them in a walk-in store! I was so excited as I have not seen these in all markets down last year's Danube trip and this year's markets north of Wiesbaden on the Rhine. I entered and my empty wine mug was spotted by the lady with pink vest and black hair, she wanted me to leave. I did and threw it out in a bin nearby. I went back in and the lady asked me to put my backpack in front, I did. But your German persistence ruined the push to buy your goods! I could have lingered for hours in this store! I am disable with my knee right now and constant dinging just took my childhood wonder in to the .........! Thank you for ruining an otherwise magical experience for an American in Germany at Xmas!!!

There is normally at least two or three fruit and vegetable stalls, one or two sausage and cheese stalls, another for fish and a bakery van. Most times there is also a florist. The produce here is excellent!! Expect to pay more than you would in the supermarket however the quality exceeds any supermarket expectation. You will find the tradesmen at the marktplatz, behind the church.

There are about a hundred stalls selling fresh seasonal produce, meats, fish, cheeses and other eatable items. There are also a few shops for a meal when at the market. It seems to be a common activity for the locals who come and do some shopping and hang out at the many cafes and eating places at the market and spend a morning / afternoon there. It is apparently one of the biggest markets in Hessen. The shops were good, quality and selection was good and the prices very reasonable. I would come here every week if I lived in the area.

A conglomeration of some fifty kiosks and carts, the bulk Cash-only and fluent only in German, it is beginning at 08h00 that the Altstadt area begins to fill with patrons, several Chefs in white seen examining Produce or organic Meats while roasters fired their grills in preparation for the nine hours to follow. Located at Konstablerwache 12, a nearby metro stop providing access since parking fills quickly, it was after taking a look around that stop one was made at a table between Vogelsberger Kartoffel und Bärlauchbratwurst and Original Vogelsberger Holzofenbrot, the former's Currywurst intensely spiced but a touch sweet while Pastries from two Women first impressed by way of their Caramelized Hazelnut Braid, then with soft and springy Doughnuts. A bit underwhelmed by Vogelsberger Holzofenbrot's Berliner, the Jam off-centered and skimpy, better bites were found amidst Bee Sting Cake shellacked in Almonds as well as their buttery Pie Crust brushed with Custard and topped with poached Rhubarb juxtaposing big chunks of Brown Sugar Streusel. Strolling further, a few choices including made-to-order Waffles debated, it was instead on Sausage and Pastry that Euros were again spent, the handmade Brat and Rindwurst from Bio-Bauernhof Wingenfeld both snappy over a great grind while Maja's Backwaren impressed with the best Pretzel found in Frankfurt for just 1€. Performing equally well with Marble Cake, the Crumb course but moist with Butter, it was a bit unfortunate that most of Maja's goods were sold in family-size portions, though the Poppy Seed Danish called Verschiedene Kaffeestückchen was delicious and managable for one while Donauwelle weighing almost half a kilogram more than justified its 4€ price by eating something like a Cream Cheese Brownie dialed up by Sour Cherries.

It is big enough that it has everything you need and room to peruse without bumping into folks, but small enough to not be overwhelming. Wide selection of meats, veggies, fruits & baked goods. There is one row of stalls dedicated entirely to wines and apple wine varietals. The apple wine with elderberry was delicious! For those more inclined towards beer, there was a beer stall offering Helles and Dunkel. I will definitely be back!

On our last day in Frankfurt, we had a little time to kill before happy hour at our hotel…read more Kleinmarkthalle, the largest food market in Frankfurt, was a short walk away. It's a little tough to tell where the entrance is, but we eventually figured it out. Once you walk into this indoor food market, you'll see a whole host of vendors selling pretty much everything under the sun. You'll see produce (fruits and vegetables), nuts, sweets, and much more. You'll also find hot food including German sausage, pizza, and more. If you come hungry, you're not going to be able to resist having some food and buying more than you should while you're there. It's kind of like going to a grocery store hungry. The food hall is on two levels. You'll find friendly vendors. Some offer free samples. I only bought a German sausage and some bread from two lovely German grandmothers. They were smiling, asked me questions about myself, and were a joy. What a cute pair! And the sausage was quite tasty (they have five or so for you to choose from). The prices seem reasonable across the board, even though I didn't buy much.

Klein Markt Halle is a large pre-war building which is packed to the brim with food vendors and visitors. It's more touristy than I would like and a bit more crowded as well. There is a decent selection of small cafes along with walk up style vendors and prices are a bit high - but it is touristy. There's not enough communal places to sit and eat so unless the weather is nice outside you might have a challenge finding a spot.
