Experience Frankfurter Künstler-Weihnachtsmarkt - St. Paul's Church

The Frankfurt Artists' Christmas Market at St. Paul's Church offers a distinctive cultural experience in one of Germany's most historically significant buildings. Now in its 102nd year, this unique market is organized by the Professional Association of Visual Artists (BBK Frankfurt) and showcases original artwork from over 100 regional artists. Unlike traditional Christmas markets focused on food and crafts, this exhibition-style market features paintings, graphics, photography, sculptures, objects, jewelry, and fine handcrafted items—all available for purchase directly from the creators. The market operates in two prestigious locations: St. Paul's Church, Frankfurt's iconic symbol of democracy, and the Römerhallen at the Römer City Hall. Visitors can browse contemporary and traditional art in an intimate, gallery-like atmosphere while experiencing the festive spirit of Frankfurt's Christmas season. The free admission makes it accessible to all art enthusiasts and gift seekers looking for one-of-a-kind presents. Located steps from the main Römerberg Christmas Market, this artists' market provides a sophisticated complement to the traditional market experience. Plan to spend 1-2 hours exploring the diverse collection of original artworks in these historic venues, and consider attending the opening ceremony with Frankfurt's Lord Mayor for a special cultural experience.
