Question

Christmas at German Village in Cinn. Ohio

Answer 1

There are many possibilities, many of which are listed in the other answers. Since Cincinnati is pretty much a German town, there are many German cultural centers and parks. The most picturesque "German village" in town is probably Mainstraße village across the river in Covington. There are always German-flavored festivities going on there. Viel Glück!

Answer 2

I am going to assume that you mean the Christkindlmarkt at Germania Park in Cincinnati. It is this coming weekend the 17th, 18th, and 19th. If you have never been it's worth a trip. The atmosphere is fun and they bring in German items for Christmas gifts, such as Steinbach Nutcrackers. All of the food is traditional German fare.

"German Village is a historic neighborhood just south of downtown Columbus, Ohio. It was settled by a large number of German immigrants in the mid 1800s, who at one time comprised as much as a third of the population of the entire city.

The area was in serious decline throughout most of the 20th century, due first to anti-German sentiment during World War I, and later to the closing of the local breweries during Prohibition. Concerned citizens managed to save its historic architecture from demolition in the 1960s, by successfully lobbying for a local commission to have power over external changes made to buildings, and by getting the area listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The German Village Society presently has over 1,000 preservationists dedicated to maintaining the historic quality of the buildings and neighborhood, and German Village is currently considered one of the most desirable areas to live in the city.

German Village has a commercial strip mainly centered along Third Street, with mostly locally owned restaurants -- such as Katzinger's Delicatessen -- and the 32-room Book Loft bookstore, as well as the tall-steepled St. Mary Catholic Church, constructed in 1868. However, German Village is mostly a residential neighborhood of sturdy, red-brick, working-class cottages with wrought iron fences, along tree-lined, brick-paved streets.

At the southern end of German Village is Schiller Park, named after Friedrich Schiller, which was once a community meeting ground for the German settlement. It is now the site of recreational facilities, gardens and an amphitheater, which hosts free live performances of Shakespearean plays during the summer months courtesy of The Actor's Theatre."
