Nuernberg is the nicest I've heard but I've never been there, always busy at work even Christmas. In small cities to the south they have their nice Christmas market too. You can travel from city to city to compare :-) Karlsruhe is a quite nice place. Personally I like Freiburg im Breisgau because I work there before, some of my friends they visit Loerrach or Strassburg in that season. Germany have a lot of old buildings you can see it every city you go. I wish you have fun there in Germany! I spent my 8 lovely years there, that was wonderful!

The most famous one is in Nuremberg. It's really cool within the city close to the old castle. The only thing is it's quite big and always full. Rothenburg ob der Tauber is another town famous for it's Christmas market. It's close to Nuremberg and they got Christmas articles around the year. It's a little traditional town with old buildings, exactly how you would imagine old Europe :-)
Anyway every city has it's one Christmas market and they're all quite nice. The ones in Southern Germany have more atmosphere and I personally prefer the ones in small cities :-)
Here some pictures (for more just google):

I additionally get excitement from Heidelberg because of fact any day on the cobblestones interior the outdated city by using the Neckar is super, and because I stay there! Frankfurt am considerable has one super charm: the wonderful FRIES I certainly have ever eaten in my life, offered only at one stand close to the Hauptwache. And in case you elect an rather small, casual yet extreme high quality one, there's a small village between Darmstadt and Bensheim..or there became, i won't discover it on a map now...with a one-weekend Christmas industry with home made enjoying cards by using infants, super wursts and engaging fries and a "Gemuetlichkeit" recent in few such markets. yet PLEASE, despite you do,,do no longer consume any fries with mayonnaise..NASTY!!!!!!!!!!!

once youv'e seen one youv'e seen them all, they only differ in size, same stuff on show/sale, might as well go somewhere where there are other sights to see as there are xmas markets everywhere you go, as nice as they are i wouldnt spend a whole weekend looking round one, ive been out here 4yrs now so ive seen a few.
