Christmas Markets in Innsbruck & Tirol

Imagine the lights of a Christmas tree rivalling with glistening tiles of the Golden Roof, the aroma of freshly made “Kiachln”, and the sound of Christmas carols.

When fairy lights are giving the medieval alleys and charming villages a magical glow, Christmas time is here. Tower brass bands and Advent concerts additionally put everyone in a festive mood. Get entertained by old traditions and customs such as Krampus runs, St. Nicholas visits, and nativity scene exhibitions. And don't forget to try some Christstollen and Kletzenbrot.
