The Christ Angel is draped in a white and gold dress and the gold crown appears with her trumpeters on the balcony of the Frauen Kirche ( woman’s church) overlooking Nuremberg's main square, Hauptmarkt in Germany, crowded with visitors many from around the world. Every year, on the Friday before the first Advent Sunday, the Nuremberg Christ Angel officially opens the Nuremberg Christmas Market in Nuremberg, Germany, by reciting a solemn prologue. Nuremberg's Christmas Market is one of Germany's oldest Christmas fairs and dates back to the mid-16th century.
