Poznań's Hidden Gems

Poznań’s heritage extends beyond the Old Market Square to include sites like the Renaissance Town Hall and the archaeological collections within the 16th-century Górka Palace. This collection features the early Polish state’s history at Gniezno Cathedral and the interactive Porta Posnania. Natural highlights include the 19th-century Kórnik Arboretum and the Poznań Palm House, one of Europe's largest. Artistic landmarks such as Magdalena Abakanowicz’s iron sculptures and the expansive Lake Malta reservoir offer varied perspectives on the city's cultural and landscape evolution.
