Town records first mention a ”Nicholas Market” in the Kaufinger Strassenear the Frauenkirche (Church of our Lady) in 1642. Back then, just like today, the Munich Christmas Market offers traditional Bavarian and unique Christmas gifts, including wood carvings from Oberammergau, gingerbread (Lebkuchen) from Nuremberg and notably some exquisite glassware from the Bavarian Forest. In all, there are over 20 Christmas Markets located throughout the city of Munich,
If you need a break from shopping, ITT also recommends the world-famous Hofbrauhaus. It was founded in 1589 and has since been one of Munich's most popular tourist attractions. Here, you find a little Oktoberfest throughout the whole year! Located behind Marienplatz, you will be able to taste traditional food, hear the local music, and sometimes dance with waitresses in traditional costumes. The Hofbrauhaus is a must for every interested tourist.
