Old Market Poznań, Poznań, Greater Poland, Poland, Europe

Poznań Old Town is a central neighbourhood of the city of Poznań in western Poland, covering the area of the walled medieval city of Poznań. It is called Stare Miasto in Polish (although that name may also refer to the wider administrative district of Stare Miasto, which to most of the city centre and northern parts of the city). The original settlement of Poznań was on the river island of Ostrów Tumski, and dates from at least the 9th century. The Old Town neighbourhood, however, corresponds to the city on the left bank of the Warta, to the west of Ostrów Tumski, which received its charter in 1253 (work on the Royal Castle, which would be at the western side of the ring of walls, began several years earlier). The city walls were taken down when the city expanded in the early 19th century, but the street layout of the Old Town still corresponds closely to that of the former walled city, with a grid of narrow streets. Surviving fragments of the walls, some of which have been further reconstructed, can be seen on ul. Stawna and ul. Masztalarska in the north, and next to Chopin Park in the south. The Old Town is centred on Stary Rynek, the Old Market Square. The historic Town Hall (Ratusz) stands in the middle of that square. At the western end of the Old Town is the hill (Góra Przemysła) on which the castle stood. The Old Market Square (Stary Rynek) is the large square on which the Old Town neighbourhood is centred. The sides of the square measure approximately 140 metres (460 ft). There is a group of buildings in the central part of the square, chief of which is the Old Town Hall (Ratusz). On each side of the square are tall rows of former tenement houses (kamienice), many of which are now used as restaurants, cafés and pubs (often with outdoor tables on the square itself). The square was originally laid out in around 1253, with each side divided into 16 equal plots, and many changes to architectural layout and style were made over the centuries. Major changes were made from 1550 onwards by Giovanni Battista di Quadro, who reconstructed the Town Hall and several other buildings in Renaissance style (severe damage had been done to the buildings by a fire of 1536). Most of the buildings in the square were reconstructed following heavy damage in the Battle of Poznań (1945).

Most of the buildings in the square were reconstructed following heavy damage in the Battle of Poznań (1945). The central group of buildings includes:
The Old Town Hall (see separate article), standing in the northeast corner of the central building group (facing east). A row of merchants' houses (domki budnicze), dating from the 16th century, painted in a multicoloured design (1953-1961), with an arcade containing souvenir stalls, facing east. One of the houses (no. 17) displays the coat of arms -- a herring and three palms -- of the merchants' guild from which the houses take their name. The former town chancellery, adjoining the merchants' houses, facing south. The old town weighing house (Waga Miejska), behind the Town Hall, facing north. This was first built 1532-1534, reconstructed 1563, demolished as unsafe in 1890 (replaced by a Renaissance-style New Town Hall used by the city government, heavily damaged in 1945), rebuilt in its former style in 1950-1960 based on surviving prints, renovated in 2002, now used for weddings and other functions. The guardhouse (Odwach), facing west, originally an 18th-century wooden building, rebuilt in Classical style in 1783-1787, heavily damaged in 1945, rebuilt 1949-1951 and used as a museum. It now houses a museum dedicated to the Greater Poland Uprising (1918--1919). The Arsenał gallery, a postwar building (1959-1962), standing on the site of a former market building which was used as an arsenal from the 17th century, and was destroyed in 1945.
The Wielkopolska Military Museum, a modern building (1959--1962) standing on the site of a former cloth hall (sukiennice).

Two Angry Goats at Poznań Town Hall, Poland

The clips was taken around Poznan Old Market Square in Poland. My friend, Katarzyna told me, everyday 12 o'clock sharp, there'll be 2 angry goats butting show at the doors under the clock at Poznań Town Hall. The goats rammed each other's head twelve times then retracted back into the doors.


From wiki: The goats and bugle call
Today the mechanical goats' butting display is performed daily at noon, preceded by the striking of the clock and the playing of a traditional bugle call (hejnał). At other hours between 7 am and 9 pm the same call is played on a carillon, installed in the tower in 2003. The daily appearance of the goats is one of Poznań's best-known tourist attractions.

A legend behind the original addition of the goats to the clock mechanism states that a cook, while preparing a banquet for the voivode and other dignitaries, had burnt a roast deer, and attempted to replace it by stealing two goats from a nearby meadow. The goats escaped and ran up the town hall tower, where they attracted the attention of the townspeople when they began to butt each other (according to some versions, this drew attention to a fire which might otherwise have done significant damage). Because of the entertainment provided, the voivode pardoned both the cook and the goats, and ordered that two mechanical goats be incorporated into the new clock being made for the building.

Another legend is associated with the hejnał. This says that Bolko, son of the tower's trumpeter, once took care of a crow whose wing had been shot through. The boy was then awoken at night by a gnome wearing a crown and purple cape, who thanked the boy for his kindness and handed him a small gold trumpet, telling him to blow it when in danger. After these words the gnome transformed into a crow and flew away.

Years later, after Bolko had taken his father's place as trumpeter, when an attacking army was scaling Poznań's walls, Bolko remembered the present, ran to the top of the tower and began to play the trumpet. Dark clouds began to gather on the horizon, which turned out to be an enormous flock of crows that fell upon the attacking army and forced it to retreat. The trumpet was lost when Bolko dropped it in his astonishment, but the call which he played is still performed.

Poznan - Freedom Square (Plac Wolności)

Though it is difficult to imagine now, Poznań’s large and typically empty 'Freedom Square' was once the heart of the city - a favourite spot of the upper classes for strolls and coffee. Originally named Wilhelmsplatz (William’s Square) in honour of King Frederick William III of Prussia, it was demarcated by the city’s new Prussian authorities at the very end of the 18th century, soon after Poland was wiped off the map by the three partitioning forces of Prussia, Russia, and Austria-Hungary. The main reason for a square this large? Big-headed higher-ups needed a representative space capable of containing an entire infantry regiment during military parades. A fire in 1803 helped to “clean up” the area, and a Jewish cemetery was liquidated to make more space, while a new theatre was built to give the square a touch of class (today the renovated building, known as Arkadia, houses an Empik bookstore and tourist information centre). For a brief period between the 1806 Wielkopolska Uprising (and subsequent invasion of Prussia by Napoleonic forces) and the 1815 downfall of the semi-independent Duchy of Warsaw, the square was renamed in honour of Napoleon, and things were looking up for Poznań’s Polish populace; then it was back to Wilhelmsplatz and Prussian parades.

Tribute to teared monument of the Red Army in Warsaw

On 1st on November 2018, during the All Saints' Day that is considered one of the most important celebration day in Poland, a group of inhabitants of Warsaw paid a tribute to the soldiers of the Red Army. They decided to gather next to the monument of the gratitude towards the soldiers who died during the liberation of Warsaw’ Praga that was removed from the Skaryszewski park since the beginning of October. Its elements were relocated to the Museum of the Cold War in Podborsko. The monument standed in the place where 26 soldiers who died on 13th of September 1944 were burried.

The organizers „Red History Campaign” (Kampania Historia Czerwona) created an event on Facebook. They organized a gathering of people who are against removing the monument and decomunization itself. Officials from the district council say that the monument has been frequently devastated. Vandals were painting svastikas or symbols of Warsaw Uprising (PW) on it.

The Relocation of the monument is a part of the wider program of decomunization that takes places in Poland since the Law and Justice party won the parliamentary election in 2015. During the process names of streets that reffer to the communist past are being changed and monuments removed. Activists as members of the Red History Campaign defends that decomunization is a way of falsificating the history.

Poznan's Euro 2012 social legacy

Poznan rises early. The city of just over half a million has with Warsaw the lowest unemployment rate in Poland and getting to work on time and in good humour is important.

The morning commute has taken on a bit of style with a gleaming new train station. The main concourse was finished in time for football's Euro 2012 tournament. There is more of the complex to be completed.

Big sporting events can often leave behind white elephants with a city struggling to recoup its investment. Poznan has a new transport infrastructure which is earning its keep, including a fleet of 40 new trams which glide from the suburbs to the centre.


Poland spent more on roads than it did on sporting venues and Poznan has benefited with the completion of the A2 motorway between Berlin and the city. The journey time has been cut by almost a half. A boost for fans during the football championships and a lasting legacy for business and logistic firms.

Paul McDowell, euronews reporter in Poznan says:
Trams, trains, a new highway, a complete new transport hub. But what about the things you can't see out of the tram windows, the things you can't touch and feel. It's what we call the social legacy. What is the social legacy of Euro 2012?


Pictures of Poznan which hosted three games went global during the summer showpiece tournament, and in the coffee shops and bars the matches united the locals creating a feeling of community.

Poznan's mayor, Ryszard Grobelny is in his fourth term of office. Sensing that feeling of unity and noting changes in his constituents' thinking comes with the job.

I see the people of Poznan now more open and more willing to share their opinions because they feel they are not individuals and they believe they share common thoughts and ideas. There is more of a community feeling and that has shown itself as people have become more involved in city life. We have just agreed the social budget for the city and more people have become involved with ideas for projects and how the money should be spent than we could ever have imagined. That willingness to get involved hasn't just increased it has exploded, he said.

The number of visitors during the tournament exceeded all expectations, around double what the city had reckoned.

The recently restored round house is known as one of the pearls of Polish modernism and a stop off on the tourist trail along with many other sites like the statue of the Golem. Poznan is the birthplace of Rabbi Loew the creator of the Golem of Prague. Tourist chiefs, like Jakub Pindych who is the marketing manager for the city believe a message from the matches in June is spreading.

According to our research we found that the 140,000 people who visited Poznan during the Euro championships left totally satisfied with they way they were looked after here in the city. Thanks to that we have made many friends now who when they went back home recommended Poznan as a great place to come for a weekend or for a holiday.

Shoppers, cafe society, fashion and art mix in the modern shopping centre. Workshops in the atrium help and guide aspiring designers.

Poznan is known as, The City of know-how and encourages, mentors and provides financial assistance for people wanting to start their own business.

One such firm, Rapcraft has grasped the initiative. For over a year now they have been developing 3-D printing, sharing their knowledge and experience with schools and colleges in Poznan.

This machine the company has designed and built, like the software they use is open source meaning there are no patent or copyright restrictions - the aim is to help and encourage others to develop such printing methods.

But their plans for the direction of the company have changed since the summer as the managing director, Bartosz Barlowski explained: We started to think of our business in a global way. Thanks to Euro 2012 we saw so many international folk coming to Poznan. We came up with an idea, ok lets bring this machine and show it all around Europe, drive it around in a van. The project is called Rapcraft and we intend to show it all around Europe and this helped us to think in a global way about our business.

Sport too continues to think beyond the city boundaries. This Olympic size swimming pool opened 12 months ago and has enabled Poznan to bid for international events. Next year it will host the European junior championships.

Nothing went as planned so you can watch the whole video for all the details. K bye.

[World War II] The Invasion Of Poland, September 1939 독일의 폴란드 침공으로 이차대전 발발

Invasion of Poland
Following several German-staged incidents (like the Gleiwitz incident, a part of Operation Himmler), which German propaganda used as a pretext to claim that German forces were acting in self-defense, one of the first acts of war took place on 1 September 1939. At 04:45, the old German pre-dreadnought battleship Schleswig-Holstein opened fire on the Polish military transit depot at Westerplatte in the Free City of Danzig on the Baltic Sea. However, in many places, German units crossed the Polish border even before 04.45. Around that time Luftwaffe attacked a number of military and civilian targets, including the bombing of Wieluń, the first large scale city bombing of the war. At 08:00, German troops—still without a formal declaration of war issued—attacked near the Polish village of Mokra. The Battle of the Border had begun. Later that day, the Germans attacked Poland's western, southern and northern borders, while German aircraft began raids on Polish cities. The main axis of attack led eastwards from Germany through the western Polish border. Supporting attacks came from East Prussia in the north, and a joint German-Slovak tertiary attack by units (Field Army Bernolák) from the German-allied Slovak Republic in the south. All three assaults converged on the Polish capital of Warsaw.
