The German Promenade Free Tour UNESCO and Fountain Show in Wroclaw
♡ Save
Come see Wroclaw's only UNESCO World Heritage Site! Explore how the German era (1741-1945) transformed the city, leaving a lasting impact on its modern soul. Discover 200 years of history that shaped Wroclaw today.
Wroclaw was once the beating heart of Central Europe. A major and modern city, it reached its heydey during the German period (1741-1945), which saw it transformed from a medieval trade city into an expression of the global influence and ambition of the German Empire.
This city was then known as Breslau. Rather than staying in the "historic" center, we will leave the shelter of the medieval moat and experience what this German metropolis once looked like. Over the course of the 19th century, the city underwent scientific, artistic, and industrial revolution, testified to by the palatial edifices erected around the former walls.
This is the only free tour that will take you to the German 1913 Exhibition Grounds, where we can see the Centennial Hall, the world's largest dome when it was built and Wroclaw's only UNESCO World Heritage Listing.
START: Plac Biskup Nankiera (Bishop Nankiera Plaza). END: Centennial Hall or "Jarhundredthalle". The length of the walk is 3-3.5 km, and it will take 2-2.5 hours, depending on our walking speed.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
