Two mugs next to a stack of delicious looking potato pancakes 

Market Mug of the Week: Worms, Germany (Kristen Thoennes (Facebook))

Kristen Thoennes, thank you for this festive photo of two cute Worms Christmas market mugs. Glühwein with hot potato pancakes go together so well! The wine used at this market comes directly from local winemakers.

The Worms Christmas market will be held from Nov. 20–Dec. 23, 2025. Please note that it will be closed on Nov. 23 for Remembrance Sunday.

Join the Nibelungen townsfolk at this cozy market for a flute flash mob, delicious traditional treats and craft sessions. If you keep your eyes peeled, you might spot a dragon or two as you meander through the town or the hero, Siegfried. Listen to live music as you enjoy a live Nativity scene or shop for handmade crafts and other special Christmas decorations. For more information, visit worms-erleben.de.
