Why you should go to Poznań
As one of the largest and oldest cities in Poland, Poznań is the perfect place for a weekend break, whether you’re travelling as a family, with friends or on your own. A city that has a bit of everything, Poznań is a cultural and economic hub with mediaeval architecture, trade fairs and a thriving cultural scene.
The Old Town in Poznań is an absolute must-see. From awe-inspiring architecture to sculptures and historical artefacts that adorn the streets, it is the perfect place to explore, as well as grab a bite to eat. The OId Town is centred on the beautiful Stary Rynek (Old Market Square), which is dominated by the 16th century Town Hall and a line of narrow, multi-coloured townhouses, which were originally used for trade purposes. The square is a picture-perfect location with so much culture and history to explore. East of the square is a bridge that crosses to the quiet island of Ostrów Tumski, and this houses Poland’s oldest cathedral, Cathedral of St John the Baptist. It’s definitely worth a visit!
If you’re a bit of a culture vulture, Poznań has a lot to offer from the Philharmonic Orchestra’s classical music concerts to Arsenal City Gallery’s art exhibitions. Make sure to research what’s on and experience Polish culture while you’re in the city.
When you should go to Poznań
The best time to visit Poznań depends on your own preferences, though many visit between May and September. If you’re looking for hot weather, July and August are when it’s warmest, though the summer months are also usually the rainiest in the year. May and June have both warm and cool days with highs of 15 to 19°C and lower rainfall so these months can be a good time to visit if you want to avoid peak tourist season.
If you are visiting during late June, make sure you get involved in the Kupala night. Every year on the shortest day of the year, thousands of lanterns are released into the sky across Poznań. During late June and July, you can enjoy the Malta Theatre Festival, which takes place across a number of venues in the city including theatres, parks and squares.

What to see and do in Poznań
- Mechanical billy goats
Make sure you don’t miss the mechanical goats in the Old Market Square. At the heart of the square is Poznań Town Hall, which has three turrets and a clock tower. Since 1551, every day when the clock strikes noon, two iron billy goats come out and face each other before butting heads 12 times while crowds gather to watch. - Malta Lake and the Maltanka train
Located next to one of the two zoos in Poznań, Malta Lake is the perfect place to go and chill out in the sunshine. Aside from the exciting summer toboggan run, there is skiing, tree climbing and other fun activities available at the lake for everyone to get involved in.
You can also venture to the northern shore of the lake where the Maltanka train takes passengers all the way to the New Zoo. An absolute favourite for all ages! - National Museum
Over 165 years old, the National Museum in Poznań is one of the oldest and largest in Poland. With both permanent and temporary exhibitions, there are countless pieces of art to be admired here.
