Not that I'm decrying any of the other excellent suggestions, but I'll add one more.
Mainz has a fine xmas market in the main square beneath the Dom (the cathedral). Since it's cold as buggery outside at xmas in most of Germany, the museums are also useful for when you're not glugging gluhwein.
There's the Gutenberg museum for people who like books, and the Roman Ship museum for those who like ships. Also, it's only a short train ride from Frankfurt airport, so easy to get to from both the UK and Birmingham.
