Review:
The Salzburg Christkindlmarkt at the Dom and Residenzplatz is a historical Christmas market and one of the oldest Advent markets in the world. Dating back to the 15th century, the market was held on Cathedral Square in the heart of the city and featured a wide variety of locally made goods and food. The market became known as ‘Nikolaimarkt’ (Saint Nicholas’ Market) in the 17th century and was held two weeks before and two weeks after St. Nicholas’ Day (6 December). Today, the market is a popular attraction for locals and visitors alike, selling all kinds of delectable treats from mulled wine and hot punch to Austrian specialties and boasts a warm and welcoming, festive atmosphere.
