Your video is very informative. I think, it is also worthy of mentioning that, athough Poland is dominated by Catholic religion, there are also quite many non-catholic Poles. There are many protestant churches in Poland as well as quite many non-religious people who also, traditionaly celebrate Christmas. Protestant families do not usually celebrate Mikołajki on the December 6th as Polish Saint Nicolas was a catholic bishop. So in protestant homes the presents ‚appear’ under christmas trees on the December 24th, just before a Vigilia Supper or at night when all children are asleep. The gifts are brought by a Little Star. One of the catholic traditions you didn’t mention is Kolena during which catholic priests visit all the homes on whose front doors people write with a white chalk: „K + M + B”. Also during Christmas time „Kolendnicy” visit Polish homes, performing little christmas plays and singing christmas carols. Polish christmas carols differ from the American christmas carols, too as the lyrics are traditionaly only about the birth of Jesus rather than about santa claus, snow, snowmen, christmas shoping, reindeer, white winter, elves, etc., etc...
Hello Karl! Thanks a lot for your comment and for bringing different perspective :) As for the Christmas carols and the tradition of visiting homes, we see it gradually disappears which is, obviously, quite sad as it's beautiful tradition... Keep safe and we wish you all the best in 2022!
Hi I watch your videos and also subscribe to your channel though the information you provide is very good and helpful. However one suggestion I have is you can make some videos which has something to see and relate or probably along with information also visually visible like a mall shopping or Christmas information with how it looks during Christmas poland
Thank you Mohammed! We're glad that you like our videos. We want them to be better and better and all the comments are very important to us. Merry Christmas!
Hi Rohit! Large cities organize Christmas dinner for all those who are in need or lonely. There are also foundations who organize and deliver traditional Christmas dishes for people in need. And of course, if you're a foreigner, you can always ask your Polish friend to come to their Wigilia and enjoy Polish Christmas (and Polish hospitality) at their home :)
Świetne video. Rzetelne informacje. Wykorzystam je na zajęciach The Polish Language and Culture w szkole średniej, w Anglii. Dziękuję!
Cudownie! Dziękujemy i polecamy się
Kul film

3:53 Roraty są rano a nie wieczorem ;) wieczorne roraty to jakieś wymysły i wypaczenia łamiące charakter tej Mszy.

What about people who have no family in the country? Is there any way they can not be lonely on Christmas?? :(
