Original Regional

The Original Regional Market brings the authentic flavors and craftsmanship of the Franconian region to Nuremberg's historic Christkindlesmarkt. Located in the picturesque niches of St. Sebald church at Rathausplatz, this specialty market showcases products from approximately 1,500 direct marketers and producers from the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region. Visitors discover a carefully curated selection of regional treasures, from aromatic Glühwein crafted by local vintners to golden honey and handcrafted beeswax products from Franconian beekeepers. The market stalls overflow with homemade liqueurs and fine brandies, artisanal fruit spreads, traditional Franconian sausage specialties, and countless other locally-produced delicacies. What sets this market apart is its commitment to authenticity and regional identity—every product tells the story of Franconian tradition and craftsmanship. The intimate setting against the medieval architecture of St. Sebald creates a cozy atmosphere where visitors can meet the producers themselves, learning about traditional manufacturing methods passed down through generations. Unlike the main Christkindlesmarkt, Original Regional closes on December 23rd, making it a special destination for those seeking genuine regional products before the holiday rush. Whether you're searching for unique gifts or simply want to taste the true flavors of Franconia, this market offers an authentic alternative to mass-produced Christmas fare.
