A funeral service is being held in the cathedral of Magdeburg, a city that has been shaken by the murderous event.
Germans have gathered in Magdeburg to mourn the victims of a terrorist attack in the eastern city that killed at least five people and injured 200.
Officials say a doctor entered a busy Christmas market on Friday evening, killing four adults and a nine-year-old child, and injuring 41 people so badly that the death toll could rise.
Church bells rang in the city at 7:04pm (18:04 GMT) on Saturday, local time attack before evening.
A funeral service was held in the city's cathedral, mostly attended by relatives of the victims, as well as emergency responders and invited guests, including German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
People who were not allowed to attend the ceremony gathered outside the church and watched on TV.
Several hundred people also gathered in the city's central square, some laying flowers and lighting candles.
The crowd also included people who carried placards with right-wing slogans.
The violence has shocked the German city of about 240,000 people 130km (80 miles) west of Berlin.
It led to several other places in Germany canceling their Christmas markets over the weekend as a precautionary measure and in solidarity with the loss of Magdeburg.
Berlin kept most of its markets open but increased the police presence at them.
The search for the target is ongoing
The suspect is a 50-year-old from Saudi Arabia who identified himself as an anti-Islamist and surrendered to police at the scene.
The suspect is being investigated for five counts of murder and 205 counts of attempted murder, prosecutor Horst Walter Nopens said at a press conference.
Investigators are looking into whether the attack could have been motivated by the doctor's dissatisfaction with Germany's treatment of Saudi refugees, Nopens said.
Police have not named any suspects, but several German newspapers identified him as Taleb A and said he was a psychiatrist and psychotherapist.
Posts on the suspect's X account, verified by Reuters, show that he supports anti-Islam and far-right parties, including the Alternative for Germany.
A Saudi expert told the agency that Saudi Arabia alerted German authorities about the suspect after he posted “extremist” comments on his X account that threatened peace and security.
An accident assessment carried out last year by German government investigators and authorities concluded that the man was “unharmed”, the Welt newspaper said, citing security sources.
Germany has experienced a series of violent incidents in recent years, including the killing of three people and the wounding of eight at an event in the western city of Solingen in August.
Friday's attack comes eight years after a man drove a car into a crowded Christmas market in Berlin, killing 13 people and injuring dozens. The gunman was killed a few days later in a shootout in Italy.
