During the Advent season in Lucerne, the city comes alive with Christmas markets offering local and international food. Although Lucerne's Christmas markets are not particularly big, we love the setting in the very charming Lucerne old town with a spectacular backdrop of the lake and snowy mountains.

The main market is at Franziskanerplatz which has about 60 stalls selling gifts.

Location: Franziskanerplatz

Open: 5 Dec to 21 Dec 2025

Times: 11:00 - 20:00, food stands until 21:00 (21 Dec closes at 19:00)

Website: www.weihnachtsmarkt-luzern.com
