The holidays are getting closer, the holidays are getting closer… This can already be seen not only in Bolesławiec’s market square, but also at the intersection of Zgorzelecka, Łokietka and Wesoła streets.
As every year, a large natural Christmas tree will be set up there. The festive tree will welcome those entering Bolesławiec from the direction of Zgorzelec.
Setting up the magnificent Christmas tree at this location is a city tradition that has become a permanent part of Bolesławiec’s festive landscape. Each season, residents look forward to the moment when the spruce appears in its place of honour, signalling the arrival of the Christmas spirit.
The tree most often comes from nearby forests and is selected by foresters and municipal services, which ensure that it is properly prepared. Once the structure has been installed and secured, the Christmas tree is decorated with hundreds of lights – it is these lights that illuminate the entrance to the city and become one of the most recognisable elements of the winter scenery.
