Poznan was once the capital of Poland and is still the capital of the Wielkopolska region. Poznan lies midway between Berlin and Warsaw, which has helped make it an important town for centuries. Badly damaged in World War II, the city (especially its Old Town) has been beautifully restored. The huge Old Town Square (Stary Rynek) is one of Europe’s nicest, and is lined by fabulous historic attractions, restaurants and nightlife. The Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul is Poland’s oldest cathedral.

The Poznan Town Hall is a beautiful Renaissance building decorating the Old Market Square. Its construction was completed around 1300. From this period survived only basements. A thorough reconstruction of the Town Hall was made in the years 1550-60 according to the design of the architect Giovanni Battista di Quadro from Lugano. Then it took on a form very similar to the present one. During this renovation, a new clock was ordered and a "clownish device, namely goats." The facade faces east . Its characteristic three-story loggia is richly decorated. Between the arches of the ground floor arcades are pairs of female allegories of virtues. The Poznań City Hall is a real pearl of the Renaissance. Every day at 12.00 the bugle call of Poznań is played from the town hall tower. At this time the mechanical goats' butting display is performed daily and are accompanied by numerous residents and tourists. Inside, the Museum of the History of Poznań is located. Really beautiful.

Our goal is to cater for the diverse needs of the audience and to develop the individual competence and sensibilities of its members. We also wish to be a venue of artistic experiment, by providing the artists with opportunities and conditions in which their work may take shape and be encountered by the public.
The palace was built for the kind, which never lived in it finally. Still impressive to see the building and have a walk in the lovely gardens.
