sive Baroque old parish church, which captivates visitors not only with its beautiful interior but also its historic organ. The city is famous for organ music and its boys’ choirs, including the Poznań Nightingales.
A city living At the rhythm of trAde shows
Poznań has long been known for trade fairs and exhibitions – Poland’s largest trade fairs were held here before World War II. Every year, the Poznań International Fair organizes about 40 specialist trade fairs, both international and national. Business people from all over the world come in droves to the largest specialist trade fairs in Poland, such as Polagra, featuring food products, Budma for the construction industry, or Tour Salon - Poland’s largest travel show. They are among the largest sec-tor events in Europe. These are one of Europe’s major industry shows. Practically all year round many business tourists come here for these events, attracted by Poznań’s reputation of a bustling business venue.
There are several lakes within the city limits. Lake Malta has one of Europe’s most modern regatta courses. Around the lake are excellent areas for recreation: people ride bicycles, roller blades, and can even ski down the artificial Malta ski slope, open all year round.
The leading shows of the Malta International Theatre Festi-val are held in this area every year. In late June, the city is alive with performers; more than 100 shows are staged during the few days of the festival.
There are many clean lakes in Poznań’s environs. Several dozen kilometres to the north is the wild Notecka Forest, while to the south stretches the marvellous Wielkopolski National Park with post-glacial landscapes.
the lAnd of cAstles And pAlAcesWielkopolska province, of which Poznań is capital, has no
shortage of historic castles and palaces. South of Poznań is the classicist palace in Rogalin, surrounded by a beautiful park. It includes a museum of home interiors and a painting gallery. Old
Poznań, with a population of 600,000, is conveniently located and accessible by rail or air from any corner of Europe. Poznań is also situated on the Paris-Moscow route, which crosses half the continent. After Warsaw, it is Poland’s fastest developing city. Many multinational corporations have set up subsidiaries and factories in the city, and the number of university-level schools continues to grow.
As all visitors are welcome in Poznań, they will have no problem getting a delicious meal, using an Internet cafe, tak-ing out cash from an ATM or communicating in a foreign lan-guage with the local inhabitants. Poznań is a large university city, full of young people, with more than 120,000 students attending over a dozen universities.
the crAdle of polAnd’s history And commerce
It’s best to start a sightseeing trip round Poznań from the oldest part of the city – Ostrów Tumski, where the cathedral stands today. At one time the castle of Prince Mieszko I and his son Bolesław the Brave, crowned the first king of Poland in 1025, stood in this part of the city. Their tombs are in the Golden Chapel of the cathedral. The first church in the area was built in 968, two years after the symbolic baptism of Poland, through which Mieszko I led Poland into the sphere of Western Christianity. The Archdiocese Museum is worth visiting and houses gold cups and monstrances from Wielko-polska churches as well as paintings by Leon Wyczółkowski, Poland’s only painting by Anthony van Dyck and a gallery of medieval sculpture.
Poznań’s city centre is occupied by the Old Town Square in the middle of which stands a Renaissance town hall. It houses the Historical Museum of Poznań with rich collection of old documents and everyday life artefacts. Every day at noon the doors of the town hall clock tower open and two metal goats appear, butting their horns at every strike of the clock. That’s the highlight of every organised trip to Poznań.
The Royal Castle was the seat of Przemysł II, the last Polish king to rule from Poznań. The building was subsequently reshaped many times. Now it houses the Museum of Applied Arts. Not far from the Old Market Square stand the impres-

furniture and fittings have survived in nearby Kórnik, which houses a collection of national mementos and is surrounded by a marvellous arboretum with an abundance of exotic spe-cies of trees and shrubs.
Poznań has its own original local cuisine. The primary dishes are made from potatoes, which Poznań residents truly love, so much so that they even have their own local name for them – pyry. Delicacies include plendze – potato pancakes, usually served with sugar or jam, and pyry with gzik – potatoes cooked in their skins and served hot on plat-ters. The essential addition is gzik – cottage cheese mixed with cream, onion, salt and spices. When butter is added to a potato with gzik, it melts on the hot potato, creating an unforgettable taste.
Poznań has also a very special local sweet delicacy - it is called Martin’s Cakes - pastry stuffed with almonds and poppy seed paste.
gifts And soUvenirsPopular gifts include small figurines of the Poznań billy
goats from the Town Hall clock or Bamberka. The memora-ble statue of Bamberka, symbolizing the settlers who moved from Bamberg to a village near Poznań in the 18th century after an epidemic that decimated the city, can be seen behind the Town Hall.
mUnicipAl trAnsportAtionMunicipal transportation in Poznań is quite comfortable.
The city centre is serviced by tramways and the rest of the city by tramways and buses. Tramway fares depend on the distance, and the bus fares differ according to the time of day and distance. There are plenty of taxis waiting at taxi stands, but it is most convenient to order them by phone – pickup is free (telephone numbers for registered taxi services are: 96 22, 821 62 16, 822 23 33, 821 92 19, 851 55 15). Taxis may be also ordered free of charge at news stands at Poznań main railway station by dialling the toll free number 91 91.
