Things to do Welcome to Wroclaw! Market Square and Cathedral Island Free Tour

We meet on the Salt Square, where steps away we will find the palatial home of Wroclaw's richest patrician. Then, we will enter the main Wroclaw market square, where we can get to know some of the city's icons, as well as some context about Wroclaw. Marvel at what used to be Wroclaw's "Cathedral of Commerce", and learn the stories behind the church with a bridge between its towers! We will pass through the various stalls of the market square, before entering the cemetary of St. Elizabeth through the "Hansel and Gretel" gate. Step back in time at the medieval butcher shop and prison. Be amazed by the famous baroque University building and the ingenuity of the 1908 covered market. We end our walk in the Wroclaw's Vatican City, the Cathedral Island. This tour was designed by me, to complement my other tour, the German Promenade, which highlights the 1741-1945 German period and takes you away from the Old Town. That route is crowned by the UNESCO 1913 German National Exhibition Grounds, the only such designation in Wroclaw. Both tours together define the city's identity and unify all the various periods of Wroclaw's history. I hope to meet you on my tour!
