The itinerary:
15.00 Meeting with the tour guide in the lobby of Wyndham Hotel.
15.00 – 16.00 The Market Square is the heart of Wrocław, an entertainment centre full of pubs and restaurants, throbbing with life at any time of day or night. At the centre of the square, there are the Cloth Hall and the City Hall, a unique historic example of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, one of its kind in entire Europe. The market square is bordered by historic tenement houses, banks and department stores. Next, exploration of some of Wrocław’s most iconic landmarks (Ossolineum, Univeristy of Wroclaw) and picturesque Old Town.
16.00 – 17.30 Then we will move on to Ostrów Tumski (Cathedral Island) – the oldest part of the city of Wrocław. It was formerly an island between branches of the Oder River. Archaeological excavations have shown that the western part of Ostrów Tumski, between the Church of St. Martin and the Holy Cross, was the first to be inhabited. That part of the city is full of uniqe churches and other landmarks.
17.30 – 18.00 The District of Four Denominations is a unique place, encompassing the area of streets: Kazimierza Wielkiego, św. Antoniego, Pawła Włodkowica and św. Mikołaja. The name refers to the fact that there are four temples of different denominations in close proximity to each other: a synagogue, a Roman Catholic church, an Orthodox church and a Protestant church. The area is especially lively in the evenings, as local discos, cafés and pubs attract crowds of people.
18.00 End of the guided tour in The Market Square.
