  • 5Wrocław and Stolen Swords

    A great tour. Our guide, Lukasz has a degree in history (among other degrees) and was able to spin the history of Wrocław into understandable bites for us, a very international group. Also injecting his dry humor at points.

About Wrocław

Wrocław is the historic capital of Lower Silesia in Poland, a city of islands and bridges on the Oder with a vast market square and little bronze dwarfs.

Wrocław is spread across islands and channels of the Oder river, joined by a tangle of bridges, and it was known as Breslau when it belonged to Germany until 1945. The Market Square is one of the largest in Europe, ringed by coloured gabled houses and dominated by the Gothic Old Town Hall. Ostrów Tumski, the Cathedral Island and the oldest part of the city, still has gas lamps.
