the mediavel christmas market is on in my hometown - i went there this afternoon with my mum, for a visit, and a town walk. in the last years, a lot of the old buildings got restaurated, and the old wooden architecture is now showing in many places. so good. the building in the second photo is the old town hall. yes, strawberry-colored!
and the third photo: that is "Stangenbrot": "Stick Bread", it's sold at one of the mediavel stalls. if you look closely, you can see the old town hall reflected in the window. of course, they also sell Glühwein at the market, and sweets, and "Hanfbread" (which looks like Gryos), and Met - mediavel beer.
