The Bohemian Christmas Market in Babelsberg suits a slow weekend in Potsdam with time for trdelník and Czech beer, and the trade-off is that it opens on just two Advent weekends. Aktionsgemeinschaft Babelsberg confirms 27–29 November and 4–6 December 2026, free to enter.

The 26th edition fills the Weberplatz, the square at the heart of the weavers' colony that Bohemian Protestants built from 1751. Stalls sell glass, ceramics and wooden crafts, and the food leans Czech, from trdelník to sausages and gingerbread. Friday evenings open at 17:00 as a long Glühwein night. On Saturday and Sunday the market opens at 11:00.
On Saturday 28 November at 16:00 you can hear Jakub Jan Ryba's Böhmische Hirtenmesse, the Bohemian Christmas Mass, with free entry. Festival listings place it in the Friedrichskirche, the church that stands on the Weberplatz.
Worth knowing
- Go on Friday evening for the long Glühwein night, which runs to 22:00.
