Although the Christmas Market is one of Wrocław’s most recognizable winter events, its closing certainly does not mean the end of attractions. January and February are an excellent time to discover the city at a calmer pace and focus on culture, art, and indoor sightseeing. Winter in Wrocław offers a rich program of concerts, compelling museum exhibitions, and attractions that allow for comfortable trip planning regardless of the weather.
The beginning of the year is an intense period for music events in Wrocław. January and February feature concerts of classical, film, rock, and alternative music—held both in large concert halls and in more intimate venues.
In January, audiences can attend, among others, the New Year’s Vienna Concert at the Radio Wrocław Concert Hall, a Hans Zimmer film music concert at Hala Orbita, or classical interpretations of ABBA songs performed by candlelight at the Synagogue Under the White Stork. The city’s calendar also includes rock and metal concerts hosted by local music clubs.
February brings further events, and the variety of the program makes it easy to combine a winter stay in Wrocław with an evening concert or theatrical performance.
Winter weather is ideal for discovering places that guarantee comfortable sightseeing regardless of outdoor temperatures.
One of the most visited attractions is Zoo Wrocław, especially the Afrykarium—a complex presenting African ecosystems. A tunnel with sharks, rays, and other aquatic species attracts both families with children and adult visitors.
Hydropolis is a modern knowledge center dedicated to water. Its multimedia exhibitions present water’s role in nature, history, and the development of civilization, offering an engaging and curiosity-filled experience.
Kolejkowo, the largest model railway exhibition in Poland, showcases scenes of city life on a miniature scale. The changing time of day, moving trains, and attention to detail make it perfect for both a short visit and a longer afternoon.
Wrocław offers a wide selection of museums that are particularly enjoyable in winter. One of the most important cultural landmarks is Panorama Racławicka.
Panorama Racławicka is a monumental painting depicting the Battle of Racławice. The artwork is over 114 meters long and 15 meters high, and its circular form gives visitors standing on the central platform the impression of being immersed in the historical scene.
Notably, a ticket to Panorama Racławicka also entitles visitors to free entry to permanent exhibitions at:
the National Museum in Wrocław,
the Ethnographic Museum,
the Four Domes Pavilion – Museum of Contemporary Art,
within three months of the Panorama visit. It is also worth planning a visit to the Four Domes Pavilion, a modernist building near Centennial Hall, presenting contemporary art of the 20th and 21st centuries.
Our hotel is located in the very center of Wrocław, allowing guests to enjoy the city to the fullest. On one hand, the Market Square and the vibrant city center—with restaurants, museums, and cultural events—are within easy walking distance. On the other, the nearby Oder River offers moments of calm; even in winter, sightseeing cruises operate, providing a unique perspective of the city from the water.
After a day full of experiences, something delicious always awaits you at Art Restauracja. Every morning begins with a rich buffet breakfast, prepared with various guest preferences in mind. In the evenings, the restaurant serves lunches and dinners based on a seasonal menu.
