Old Market Square and Liberty Square are two symbolic places of Christmas in Poznan.
Right here the markets are set up and the main Christmas events take place.
STARY RYNEK MARKETS
This is the splendid Old Market Square, the beating heart of the city.
A magical location where you can admire dozens of stalls offering handicrafts and local traditional products.
A riot of sparkling lights, colors and scents, among the wooden houses.
Some with more or less extravagant shapes.
Very popular Christmas balls, for a gift, or personal.
A sip of mulled wine, to warm up.
Chocolate lovers, however, will not be indifferent to a good slice of wuzetka, the dessert with cocoa sponge cake, ganache, cream …
Ok program is enriched with events and lots of entertainment throughout the month of December. Concerts and Christmas carols. The traditional contest of the most beautiful nativity scenes. The splendid festival of ice sculptures.
