Christmas in Darmstadt

I'm American but lived several years in Germany. I love the German Christmas traditions! For instance celebrating a 1st and 2nd Christmas day and celebrating until the 6th of January, Epiphanias (Epiphany).

I love the delicious Christmas cookies and festiveness. Also the church bells on Christmas Eve.
Visiting the Christmas market was so much fun!
