Millions of people planning to visit the famous Christmas market in Frankfurt have been warned of risks to public health and safety.
Visitors to the Frankfurt Christmas market will be banned from one particular activity this year Children’s health is threatened by weed consumption at Christmas markets, while knife crime also posed a ‘high escalation risk’, Hesse’s government said. The state’s interior minister, Roman Poseck, announced plans on Wednesday to ban cannabis at Christmas markets, including the iconic Frankfurt market. There will also be increased police presence to enforce a knife ban, he added.
’ The Christmas market in Frankfurt am Main is one the oldest and largest in the world, with over 200 stalls and 3,000,000 expected visitors Cannabis was partially decriminalised by the German government earlier this year, with over 18s allowed to possess up to 25g of cannabis in public. Germans can also join ‘Growers associations’ or ‘social clubs’ with up to 500 members. The law, which is opposed by the CDU, also bans cannabis consumption in the presence of minors.
