Crumble the yeast into the lukewarm milk, add a pinch of sugar, and let it proof for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the proofed yeast mixture and the melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Gently knead the marzipan, chopped figs, raisins, and almonds into the risen dough, then shape it into a stollen. Form the dough into a long, oval shape, and fold both ends slightly inward.
Place the stollen on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown. Cover with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes to prevent burning.
Let the baked stollen cool completely, then dust the top generously with powdered sugar.
