Summary

Germany is enforcing a strict knife ban at Christmas markets as part of a new security package passed in October following a deadly knife attack in Solingen that killed three and injured eight.

Interior Minister Nancy Faeser pledged “strict enforcement” and “zero tolerance,” with fines of up to €10,000 for violations.

The ban applies to knives at festivals, markets, and large events, with police ensuring compliance.

The measures aim to enhance safety at Germany’s iconic markets, which have already seen one unrelated injury this season.
