Common fillings include mashed potato with cottage cheese, sauerkraut, and even berries for a sweet version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Barszcz czerwony<\/strong>: This beetroot soup is a common starter at Polish Christmas Eve dinners. It&#8217;s a light, tangy soup, sometimes served with tiny dumplings known as uszka, filled with wild mushrooms and cabbage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kutia<\/strong>: A sweet dish traditionally served at the end of the Christmas Eve meal in Eastern Poland. It&#8217;s a mix of wheat berries, poppy seeds, honey, dried fruits and nuts, creating a hearty and sweet dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kompot z suszu<\/strong>: A traditional Christmas drink, this is a sweet beverage made by boiling dried fruits and spices in water. The result is a sweet, fragrant drink that&#8217;s often consumed in large quantities during Wigilia, the Polish Christmas Eve supper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Golabki<\/strong>: Translated to &#8216;little pigeons&#8217;, cabbage rolls filled with rice and meat, covered with tomato or mushroom sauce. A vegetarian version swaps the meat for mushrooms or lentils, making it a hearty option for vegetarian visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Makowiec<\/strong>: This poppy seed roll is a staple of Polish holiday cuisine. A sweet yeast bread is rolled around a dense filling of ground poppy seeds, sugar, butter, and often dried fruit and nuts, then baked until golden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food at the Stalls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Grzane piwo<\/strong>: This is warm beer, a traditional Polish winter beverage. It is typically prepared with dark beer, heated and mixed with spices such as cloves, cinnamon and honey. It&#8217;s perfect for keeping your hands warm while strolling through the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oscypek<\/strong>: Oscypek is a smoked cheese made of salted sheep milk. Originating from the highland region of Podhale in Poland, these are traditionally shaped into decorative spindle-like figures and are served grilled with cranberry sauce at the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kielbasa<\/strong>: This is a Polish sausage, typically made from pork. Grilled over an open fire at the market, it&#8217;s served in a roll with sauerkraut and mustard, making for a hearty snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Zapiekanka<\/strong>: A popular street food in Poland, Zapiekanka is an open-faced sandwich made from a baguette, topped with sauteed mushrooms, cheese, and often other ingredients like ham or vegetables, toasted until the cheese is well melted. It&#8217;s usually finished off with a squirt of ketchup. Highly recommended!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Paczki<\/strong>: These are deep-fried doughnuts filled with rose hip jam and often topped with icing sugar or glaze. They&#8217;re sweet, indulgent, and particularly beloved in Poland, where they have a long-standing history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gingerbread cookies<\/strong>: Not exclusively Polish but a popular feature at Christmas markets across Europe, these intricately decorated cookies are a festive favourite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mulled wine<\/strong>: Known as &#8216;Grzane wino&#8217; in Poland, this warming beverage is a must-try at the Christmas market. Made from red wine, heated and spiced with cloves, nutmeg and orange peel, it&#8217;s a comforting drink to warm up with while exploring the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chimney cake or Trdeln\u00edk<\/strong>: Originating from Central Europe but now a common sight at Christmas markets across the continent, this sweet pastry is made by wrapping dough around a wooden or metal stick, roasting it over an open flame and then coating it in sugar or cinnamon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Buy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Handmade Christmas Ornaments<\/strong>: Handmade Christmas ornaments are a classic among the various products available. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these decorations often feature traditional Polish designs and symbols and can add a unique touch to your Christmas tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Amber jewellery<\/strong>: The Baltic Sea coast is rich in amber, often called the &#8220;Baltic Gold&#8221;. At the Christmas markets in Katowice, you&#8217;ll find a wide selection of amber jewellery, from necklaces to earrings, each piece unique and carrying a piece of the region&#8217;s natural beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Traditional Polish pottery<\/strong>: Recognised for its distinctive blue and white patterns, this high-quality stoneware from Boles\u0142awiec makes for a practical and beautiful gift. Mugs, plates, bowls, and more are available, each hand-painted and fired at high temperatures for durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Polish Folk Art<\/strong>: Items such as colourful, hand-painted wooden boxes and intricate paper cut-outs (Wycinanki) reflect Poland&#8217;s rich folk art traditions. These items are aesthetically pleasing and carry centuries of Polish cultural history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hand-carved wooden toys<\/strong>: Skilfully made wooden toys are a delightful find at the market. Often carved and painted by hand, these toys are both charming and durable, making them a great gift for the younger ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Polish linen products<\/strong>: Polish linen is well-regarded for its quality. Beautifully woven tablecloths, napkins, or even clothing made from this material can be found, providing a touch of rustic elegance to any home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Locally made honey and preserves<\/strong>: Local producers often sell their honey, jams, and preserves at the Christmas market. Whether derived from the wildflowers of the Polish countryside or fruits from local orchards, these sweet treats are a delightful reminder of your visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll also find a wealth of useful information for planning your trip on <a href=\"https:\/\/welcome.katowice.eu\/\">Welcome to Katowice<\/a>, a comprehensive resource to keep abreast of Katowice&#8217;s latest events and attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sustainability Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Choose Accommodations Powered by Renewable Energy<\/strong>: Some hotels and guesthouses in Katowice run on renewable energy and implement energy-saving solutions. Try staying at one of the eco-friendly hotels if you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Minimise Food Waste<\/strong>: Katowice&#8217;s Christmas market is brimming with delicious treats, but I recommend buying smaller portions to avoid unnecessary waste. Also, consider sharing dishes with your travel companions so you can sample a wider variety of foods without leaving leftovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Opt for Ethical Consumption<\/strong>: Look for stalls that sell locally made crafts and products, which support the local economy and reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance shipping. For example, local artisans often handcrafted amber jewellery and traditional Polish pottery at the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Adopt a Sustainable Diet<\/strong>: Polish cuisine has many plant-based options that are tasty and more sustainable. At the market, choose dishes like pierogi stuffed with cabbage and mushrooms or borscht, a beetroot soup, which are delicious examples of traditional vegetarian Polish food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use Sustainable Transport<\/strong>: Katowice has an efficient public transport system, including trams and buses, which is an eco-friendly way to explore the city. For shorter distances, consider walking or hiring a bicycle from the numerous bike rental stations dotted around the city, which will also give you a unique perspective of Katowice&#8217;s charming streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you plan your visit to Katowice, remember to explore beyond the market itself, with museums, parks, and historic sites adding to the city&#8217;s vibrant tapestry. Despite the cold, a trip to Katowice this winter promises a warm welcome and a truly rewarding experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to leave a review of Katowice Xmas Market, comment below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Recommendations are independently chosen based on personal travel experiences and extensive research.
