Christmas market around the Michel

On the first weekend of Advent, Hamburg's oldest Christmas market shines and glitters at the Michel. In the crypt, in the parish hall and, for the first time, all over the church square, visitors can enjoy arts and crafts stalls, food and drink and hands-on activities such as painting nativity figures.
