Experience Jarmark Bożonarodzeniowy - Coal Market

The Wrocław Christmas Market transforms the historic Market Square and surrounding areas into a magical winter wonderland, spreading across four distinct locations: the Main Market Square (Rynek), Salt Square (Plac Solny), Świdnicka Street, and Oławska Street. This enchanting market features over 150 wooden chalets offering traditional Polish crafts, international delicacies, and festive entertainment that draws hundreds of thousands of visitors each season. The Market Square serves as the heart of festivities with a stunning Venetian carousel, amusement rides, and live music performances that fill the air with holiday cheer. A beloved highlight is Antek the talking moose, positioned near the iconic Jaś and Małgosia houses, delighting both children and adults with his witty banter. Salt Square specializes in culinary experiences, showcasing foods from around the world alongside traditional Polish treats like oscypek (smoked mountain cheese) and pierogi. The market's elaborate decorations include giant ornaments, twinkling lights, and a magnificent Christmas tree that creates an Instagram-worthy backdrop. Visitors receive traditional themed mugs for their beverages, adding an authentic touch to the experience. The Festival of Ice Sculpture and the opportunity to ride the Ferris wheel for panoramic views of the illuminated city make this market truly special. Plan to spend 2-3 hours exploring all four locations to fully experience Wrocław's festive magic.
