Tips & Advice
- Arrive early, especially on Saturday, to fully enjoy the market before it gets crowded and to ensure the best selection from the monastery bakery.
- Bring cash, as some smaller vendors may not accept card payments, and it's convenient for purchasing treats and gifts.
- Check the weather forecast and dress in warm layers, as the market is held outdoors and November can be chilly.
- Plan your visit to coincide with St. Nicholas's appearance to see him gift children, but be aware he visits on both days.
- Explore the Nikolauskloster grounds after visiting the market; the monastery itself is a place of peace and reflection.
