Easter in Cracow

Why spend Easter in Cracow?

Cracow is one of those places where Easter holidays are truly special. Centuries-old traditions, church celebrations, local customs and a family atmosphere combine to create an atmosphere that cannot be faked. As early as Palm Sunday, colourful processions line the streets, and on Good Friday thousands of the faithful participate in the Stations of the Cross near Wawel Castle. On Holy Saturday, locals and tourists throng the churches to bless food - baskets of bread, horseradish, eggs and lambs decorate temples throughout the city.

A major attraction, for locals and visitors alike, is Cracow's Easter market - set up in the Main Square, full of stalls selling handicrafts, regional delicacies, decorations and festive gifts. It is here that you can buy hand-painted Easter eggs, scented candles, tunics, palms or mazurkas, as well as listen to folk music and watch artistic performances. During the festive season, there are also workshops for children, competitions for the most beautiful palms or charity fairs.

Cracow at Easter is also a great opportunity to explore the city - Wawel, Kazimierz, Planty Park, and a stroll along the Vistula boulevards take on a special charm in the spring. The city doesn’t lose its rhythm - and at the same time, it offers something more: a genuine, living tradition.
