Discover Aachen – the German Xmas Market at the heart of Europe!
Come with me and explore a German Christmas market at the very heart of Europe! together with my friend Heike. Here we will discover a whole range of delights notably ‘Printen’ a delectable lighter and softer cousin of gingerbread that is unique to the city of Aachen and ooh so delicious! And it’s eaten all year round. Not just at Christmas.
Philip includes a montage of the prettiest Christmas candle stall he has ever seen with collections from all over the world!
We visit Aachen’s ancient cathedral to appreciate the city’s unique history and prominence under Charlemagne during the Holy Roman Empire. The cathedral’s interior is a remarkable sight.
Heike also bumps into her friend, Susanne, totally by chance who just happens to run one of the prettiest stalls on the market. Susanne tells us the stories behind her selection of gifts – and we find out just how much it costs to buy antique baubles over one century old to decorate this year’s Christmas tree.
Here’s details for two of the very best ‘Printen’ bakeries in Aachen:
