Bautzen: Mustard and Christmas Market

Bautzen is famous for its mustard, so we went to the mustard museum. It was more of a store with a few displays. We tasted a lot of mustard. It was nice, like other German mustards we had, but we decided to buy their Christmas mustard which is kind of honey-kind of sharp.

After that, we went to the Christmas market. Now Bautzen says their market it the oldest (take that, Dresden), the town having been given permission by King Wenceslas IV in 1384 beating Dresden by fifty-one years. Dresden begs to differ... But the Wenzels Markt, named after the king (not the one from the song), was a nice market. Weird thing, we got a cup come 2020, and since well, it was the Corona year, we kept it instead of turning it in and trying to get one from this year.Les mer
