Set around the grand Domplatz and through the medieval core, Erfurt’s market is famed for its nativity scene with life‑sized figures, a giant pyramid and cosy wooden stalls.
Thuringian bratwurst and schittchen stollen fuel browsing, and trams stop right on the square. The market is closed on Totensonntag but otherwise offers generous daily hours. For views and photos, climb to the Cathedral steps at blue hour. Erfurt combines scale with a handsome, walkable centre—perfect for a relaxed Advent weekend.
