Poznań XIX-wieczny

Poznań

During the Partitions, Poznań was first the capital of the Grand Duchy of Poznań and later of a Prussian province. The city grew considerably at that time, and its centre was adorned with many prestigious buildings.We begin our tour together on Wolności Square and finish on Niepodległości Avenue. With the audio guide we get to know both the edifices erected by the Germans as symbols of their power in the city (e.g. the Imperial Castle) and the buildings put up by Poles guided by the ideas of organic work (e.g. the Raczyński Library).
