Old Market

Went to the Christmas markets this year 2025, well worth the visit. There were 4 -5 different areas of market spread through the city all within easy walking distance of each other, but also it has a land train that you can use to travel between then. Vast range of stalls selling all sorts of goods as well as big range of foods and drinks.

There is a Christmas market located here that is very beautiful. Smaller than the others but very lovely. Lots of stands for food and drink, as well as goods. Entry is free. Worth visiting!

Went to see the christmas markets! There are plenty to visit and loads of amazing drinks, gifts and food to choose from.

A beautiful and lively square in the heart of Cologne’s Old Town. Full of charm, colorful historic buildings, and plenty of cafes and restaurants where you can sit outside and enjoy the atmosphere. Great place for a stroll, people-watching, or grabbing a Kölsch beer. It can get crowded, especially in the afternoons and weekends, but that’s part of its charm. Definitely worth a visit if you’re exploring the city!

I loved the Old Market! It was lovely to see couples celebrating their marriage after leaving City Hall! I also enjoyed watching the church tower where a man( statue of his face) sticks out his tongue every 15 minutes!

Visit 1/6 Christmas market This is the one of the better Christmas markets in cologne

Went to see the Christmas Markets, they were wonderful and fun.

Not too far from the Cathedral Market, this market is busy with a lot of vendors that sell food, Glühwein, and fun items to bring home for Christmas. There was a brass band playing Christmas Carols on the center of the market which gave it a warm and cozy feeling. There are bathrooms (€1) at the end of the market where the Ferris wheel is.
