In Hamburg there is a reason why the german word for contemplative – „besinnlich“ – contains the „sin“…

Everybody loves Christmas markets – the Reeperbahn, Hamburg’s mile of sin has created a more salacious version – SANTA PAULI. It’s all there, christmas trees, mulled wine, the little booth where u buy things for your loved ones … but as well live music, angels in a strip tent and little things for the ones you love to love.

The drinks on the Winterdeck are called „Bordsteinschwalbe“ (Hamburg slang for prostitute) or „Nussknacker“ (nutcracker) but you can even create your own mulled wine in Santas mulled wine pharmacy.

SANTA PAULI starts every year in the end of november till the end of december, free entrance.

Attention: 25.11. (Totensonntag) the market is gonna be closed.
