St. Nicholas visits the children at the Aachen Christmas market

 Friday, 5. December 2025     16:00 - 18:00

Do you know why St. Nicholas comes to Aachen on 5 November? It's simple: on St. Nicholas Day itself, he has so much to do that he wouldn't have enough time to meet all the children in peace.

That's why he makes a little early stop at the Aachen Christmas market – because he loves the festive atmosphere so much and simply can't wait to see all the happy faces.

And of course, he doesn't come empty-handed:
St. Nicholas brings the children sweet treats and looks forward to seeing every beaming face.
