When December arrives and Wrocław lights up with thousands of twinkling lights, when the Market Square fills with the aroma of mulled wine, gingerbread, and roasted nuts – you know the most magical time of the year has begun. It’s the perfect moment for a city break and a few days of relaxation in a city that, in December, looks like a Christmas postcard.
If you’re searching for accommodation close to the Wrocław Christmas Market, choose Art Hotel – a boutique hotel located just a few dozen meters from the Market Square and the magical festive village.
This year’s Wrocław Christmas Market has already begun and promises to be one of the most spectacular in its history. Colorful wooden stalls have appeared not only on the Market Square and Plac Solny, but also along Oławska and Świdnicka streets. A new feature this year is the illuminated welcome gate on Oławska Street, inviting visitors into the holiday atmosphere from the very first step.
In the Fairy-Tale Forest, children can enjoy a charming reindeer train ride, while on the northern side of the Market Square a carousel shaped like a Christmas tree draws attention with gondolas resembling festive baubles. Among the Christmas stalls in Wrocław you can, as always, find flavors from around the world: from lángos and flatbreads to Silesian dumplings, churros, Belgian chocolates, and spiced gingerbread. Traditional mulled wine is served in ceramic boot-shaped mugs – a signature of the Wrocław market. Lovers of arts and crafts will discover a rich selection of ceramics, ornaments, glass, jewelry, and textiles from artisans across Poland and Europe. The towering Christmas tree awaits the evening hours to shine with thousands of lights. And the Market isn’t limited to the Market Square itself.
For the first time, the holiday atmosphere will also extend to the riverside – Marina Kleczków will transform into a festive Christmas village along the Odra River, creating a new winter meeting spot. On December 5–7 and 19–21, 2025, at the intersection of Wita Stwosza and Szewska streets, the „Ręki Dzieła Fest” craft and design fair will take place, where local artists will present unique works – perfect as Christmas gifts. Time to plan your December city break in Wrocław today!
December in the city is more than just the Christmas Market. Winter in Wrocław offers scenic walks through the beautifully illuminated Cathedral Island (Ostrów Tumski), river cruises along the Odra, and cozy café afternoons in the atmospheric Nadodrze district. If you prefer a quieter pace, consider visiting just after New Year – the city’s decorations remain until January.
