Here, you’ll find stalls selling a wide variety of traditional German Tudor-style houses, colorful chocolate sticks and heart-shaped gingerbread, as well as must-try German sausages and fish burgers. You can also enjoy the local specialty, apple wine, and its adorable themed porcelain, which has become a shopping favorite. With food, drinks, and goods galore, you could easily spend the whole day here.
