The Christmas season is officially under way in the city of Cullman as the annual Christkindlmarkt Parade traveled through downtown Cullman toward Depot Park Friday night.
The city has expanded the Christkindlmarkt footprint which has allowed for several new features including the largest ferris wheel in Alabama, as well as the Christkidnl Express, an “enchanting little train ride.”
Be sure to check out the Kinderplatz (Santa’s village full of activities for children), Old-fashioned, German-style, pop-up Christmas street market with artists, craftspersons and other makers of gift-type goods and an abundance of food.
The Cullman Christkindlmarkt will take place from through Dec. 23, every Thursday (except Thanksgiving) through Sunday at Depot Park, 304 1st Ave NE, in downtown Cullman. Hours are Thursday-Saturday 11 a.m.-9 p.m., Sunday 12-8 p.m. Beginning Dec. 16, it will be open seven days a week. Admission is free. For more information on the Cullman Christkindlmarkt including a schedule of events, visit cullmanchristkindlmarkt.com/ or call 256-734-9157.
