I keep meaning to visit the Ritter store in Berlin Mitte, but I get caught out doing other fun things in the Hauptstadt … and there are more than a *few* fun things to do in the capital city. I also really enjoyed the WeihnachtsZauber at Gendarmenmarkt; I think the modest fee might actually keep some of the crowds away, even on principle! The Weihnachtsbaum at Brandenburger Tor is huge, but there’s something very special about seeing it “embraced” by that famous gate, as I also photographed in my post below one Christmas Eve a few years ago … 🙂 Thanks for your post; Berlin’s a pretty place for Christmas, too.

Germany sounds like a fantastic place to have a traditional Christmas! I’d love to try some of those poffertjes. Even saying it sounds fun. Poffertjes!

Legoland isn’t just for the kids-that looks awesome! I have not been to Berlin yet, and I have to say it looks wonderful at Christmas time. Thanks for linking up to the Sunday Traveler this week and hope to see you back next week 🙂

Thanks for Berlin tips. I will go there in March. Although it will be well passed the Christmas time, I hope to enjoy many places you recommended here. Love the Lego Santa!

I love to see toddler friendly tips! I know we’ll be back to Europe in the next few years, maybe we’ll have to think about Christmas as a time to go.

Ooo we love Berlin! We’ve been twice and done many of the things you listed, but we haven’t been during Christmas time. We’ll have to try that Baumkuchen!
