Advent in Fulda
Stay for the Christmas market in Fulda
During Advent, Fulda’s old town smells of mulled wine and roasted almonds. Around the cathedral and the city palace, five themed markets with around 100 stalls await you. With us you stay at a family-run hotel in a central location: leave your car at the hotel and walk to the Christmas market.
