January In Poland

January is the coldest and snowiest month. Sunset on January 1 is at 3:30 p.m. New Year’s Day is a public holiday in Poland. Epiphany/The Three Wise Kings on January 6 is also a public holiday. A tradition of that day is to write K + M + B (or C + M + B) over the door to the house. The letters represent the names of Caspar/Kaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar and also the blessing “May Christ bless this house.” January 21 and January 22 are Grandmother’s and Grandfather’s day.
