Christmas Tree Prices Rise Slightly in 2024

Despite a modest price increase, favorable weather ensures ample availability of Nordmann firs, the most popular choice in Germany.

The price for Nordmann firs, the preferred Christmas tree in Germany, has increased by approximately one euro per meter compared to last year.
Prices vary significantly depending on location, with urban areas like Munich seeing higher costs than rural regions such as the Odenwald.
Germany sells between 23 and 25 million Christmas trees annually, with about 19 million sourced domestically and the remainder imported, primarily from Denmark.
The summer's favorable weather conditions have ensured a good supply of healthy trees, with no significant damage from drought or frost reported.
North Rhine-Westphalia remains the largest Christmas tree cultivation area in Germany, particularly the Sauerland region, which produces a substantial portion of the country's trees.
