Overview

Step into the heart of Poznań and trace its story from the city’s earliest days to its fight for freedom. This self-guided walking tour takes you through the Old Town’s most iconic landmarks, including the magnificent Cathedral Island, the colorful Town Hall with its famous goat legend, Baroque Fara Church, and the Royal Palace where decisions that shaped Poland’s future were made. Along the way, you’ll uncover tales of Prussian rule, Nazi occupation, and the fierce battles that scarred but never broke the city. Hear about the hidden corners, striking monuments, and stories of resilience—like the dramatic 1956 Uprising—woven into Poznań’s streets. With clear directions, engaging commentary, and the freedom to explore at your own pace, you’ll experience history coming alive right where it happened. Perfect for first-time visitors, history lovers, and curious travelers eager to see beyond the surface of Poznań.
