The Christmas market in Pilsen will put you in the mood for the upcoming holidays like no other. The Christmas tree will be lit up on Republic Square and the surrounding area will be enveloped in the ever-present scent of mulled wine and cinnamon. In addition to delicious refreshments, you can look forward to demonstrations of folk traditions and crafts that have always been part of Christmas. Sing carols, stop by the carved nativity scene, and, with your children, come to see the live animals. You can make your wandering through the market even more special with a visit to St. Bartholomew’s Cathedral. Your secret dreams and wishes will come true not only by the beautifully illuminated bell tower in the middle of the market, but also by the angel on the cathedral grille. Just touch it.
The Christmas market is open daily from 10 am to 8 pm and is accompanied by a rich cultural programme. You can also visit it the evening before Christmas Day.
