Things To Do in Poznań
Old Market Square
Beautifully decorated and colourful medieval 'kamienice' (tenant's houses) surround the renaissance Town Hall
Poznań Cathedral
An absolute must. The royal tombs of the first Polish kings can be found here
Zielona Weranda
This is one of the hidden gems of Poznań. Fantastic for a light lunch, tea, coffee or one of the traditional home-made Polish cakes.
Fara Poznańska
Just off the Old Town Square, this gem of baroque architecture is an absolute must-see if you're in Poznań. One of the only buildings in the old town to have escaped the German air raids at the end of WW II.
Restauracja Ratuszova
If you want to try Polish cuisine taken to the next level, this is definitely a place to go. A bit on the pricey side (at least for Polish standards), but you won't be disappointed.
Rogalowe Muzeum
If you're in Poznań, you must try the local delicacy: Rogal Świętomarciński, a poppyseed-filled croissant-like sweet traditionally made for the city saint, St Martin celebrations.
Pijalnia Wódki i Piwa
In case you haven't had enough vodka at the wedding (highly unlikely!), you should definitely head to one of the Pijalnias. Stylised as communist era bars, they serve dangerously cheap (1 EUR) beer and vodka, and equally dangerously cheap (2 EUR) and super tasty, albeit slightly on the fat-rich side, Polish tapas.
Rynek Jeżycki
Jeżyce is one of the oldest districts (dzielnica) in Poznań. You can escape the tourist-filled Old Town Square and admire the 19th century houses around the rynek (market square), where the locals go to buy their groceries.
Malta Lake
Less than a 10 minute tram ride from the centre (take no. 16 from Wrocławska to Baraniaka) is the Malta Lake. If you're tired of the city, you can take a stroll around the artificially created lake, where rowing championships are held regularly, and enjoy the nature.
Jezioro Strzeszyńskie
If you want to chill in the nature, sunbathe and have a dip in the lake to wash off the wedding hangover, Strzeszyńskie lake is one of the local hot spots. Public bus 195 from Ogrody (10 minutes by tram from the old town) will get you there in less than 20 minutes.
