Poland's commercial heart blends a beautiful old town with a vibrant student atmosphere.
Poznań is Poland's historical beginning — the Polish state was born here in 966 CE. The old market square (Stary Rynek) is one of Poland's most beautiful, two mechanical goats butt heads at noon daily in the tower clock, and Poznań is Poland's leading trade fair centre.
