Known as the hometown of the great Copernicus, Toruń is one of the most important and crowded tourist centres in Poland. The layout of the streets of the Toruń Old Town that has not been changed for centuries together with the breathtaking panorama of the illuminated medieval part of the city seen from the Vistula River side create a captivating atmosphere that is sure to delight any sightseer. The medieval architecture of Toruń is a testimony to long tradition and rich past of the city.
Toruń, dominated by Gothic architecture, offers a unique mixture of Polish and German history. The more valuable as it is one of a few cities that weren’t demolished during World War II. One can spend many hours wandering the city and still not run out of things to see. The tourist attractions of Toruń include: monumental Gothic cathedrals, outstanding Gothic Old City Town Hall, the ruins of the very first in Poland Teutonic Castle, the Gothic Leaning Tower, many Gothic townsmen’s houses and preserved city defence walls with Gothic gates and turrets. The whole complex of the Toruń Old Quarter consists of three historical urban sections: Old City, New City and the Teutonic Knights’ Castle, all listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The city is also famous for its delicious gingerbread. The special ‘World of Toruń Gingerbread’ exhibition at the Nicolaus Copernicus House tells the story of the gingerbread craft and gives you an opportunity to bake your own batch. Guides dressed in period attires will show you around the beautiful interior of the 15th century merchant house and introduce you the everyday life of Toruń citizens at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries.
