Things To Do
Historical Market Square/ City Center
Lively and quaint cobblestone city square with benches, vendors, a monument & nearby cafes.
Pierogarnia Stary Młyn - Traditional Polish Food
Delish Pierogi aka Polish dumplings. We highly recommend trying the wood oven fire cooked Pierogi! The have English menus and speaking waiters.
Find The Gnomes
You will notice there are little gnome figurines all over the city. Keep an eye out for them and see how many you can spot! The cheeky gnomes are taking over Wrocław. Cute as they may be, each statue is a nod to the Orange Alternative, an anti-Soviet resistance movement that helped bring down Poland's oppressive communist regime in the 1980s. You can get a map at any tourist store and go hunt for them!
Barbarka Bar
It's a bar barge! Docked on one of Wrocław's picturesque islands nestled between Ostrów Tumski and the Old Town. Come during the day for a more chilled out vibe, when Wroclavians prefer to recline in a lounge chair with a cold craft beer. Barbarka blasts loud techno and house long into the night as its young and hip clientele down a seemingly never ending procession of alcoholic drinks
Cathedral Island aka Ostrów Tumski
The quarter is one of the prettiest for walks, with a church at almost every turn and the way lit by genuine gas lamps at night. If you come at dusk you can watch the old-time lamp lighter illuminating the streets. Give yourself an hour to see the medieval riches in the Archdiocese Museum at the episcopal palace. Be sure to check out the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist.
Panorama of the Battle of Racławice
This monumental painting is 15ft x 375ft. and is the oldest in Poland. The panorama stands in a circular fashion and, with the viewer in the center, presents different scenes at various viewing angles. A special kind of perspective used in the painting and additional effects (lighting, artificial terrain) create a feeling of reality.
