VIDEO: Excelsior's Christkindlsmarkt 2012 Ushers in Holiday Season

Christkindslmarkt is an outdoor market with products, food and events for the whole family.

Excelsior may have a small town feel, but it marked the beginning of the holiday season in a big way over the Thanksgiving weekend with the Sixth Annual Christkindlsmarkt—a festival that originated in Germany hundreds of years ago. In Excelsior, the festival survives as a German-themed open air market that has become part of a long list of seasonal events in Excelsior.
