Itinerary
Admire an authentic Old Town city which wasn’t destroyed during the wars. It has one of the most beautiful town squares in all of Europe. As a historic site Torun ranks as high as Cracow or Gdansk. It was even included in the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage List.
This is not just a statue. It is a monument to a citizen of Torun, who became its main symbol. And he deserved it!
Two Gothic tenement houses, one of which is supposedly the birthplace of the great astronomer, Nicholas Copernicus. Now inside the Museum House of Nicolas Copernicus is located.
This is a town hall typical for wealthy and important trade hubs like medieval Toruń. Inside, there a city museum with many interesting exhibits and hall tower with magnificent view at the whole city.
Torun has lots of inventive quirky little statues in it and this little monument is one of the stars.
The unique attraction showing lesson about universe in rounded shaped building with interactive equipment about cosmos.
Leaning Tower is known as one of the landmarks of Torun's Old Town. It's been built in 13th century of red brick as a part of Torun's defence system. Now it handles interesting legends itself.
This stunning Medieval Cathedral located in Old Town of Torun year after year impresses more and more visitors and inside you can see rich interior, baroque chapels and panorama of Torun on top of the tower.
Impressive remains of great Teutonic Castle. The best place to feel Medieval Times vibes on your own.
It's one of unique sculpture/monument which makes people smiling and keeps city in great atmosphere.
The extremely tall and colourful windows in the church attracts most of visitors.
Nice popular sculpture and fountain in one and matches by style to many other monuments in the near area.
Small but well designed fountain, great place especially at the evenings. Then you feel great vibes of the city with colourfull lights and peaceful sounds of water. Possible for request.
Nowadays on the Teutonic Castle is settled the Cultural Centre with nice exhibitions around, mostly inside, but outside as well. In any case it's worth to see it and move back in time to Medieval Times and Teutonic Knights.
Feel the power of Teutonic Knights and admire size and effort involved to build this Castle years ago.
The exterior of this brick church originally built in the 1300s is relatively small compared to others in Torun, but with interesting twin tower on top of it.
Medieval, raw building of museum, which presents the history of the city from Paleolithic Era to Solidarnosc. The city was rich and powerful in the Middle Age then many things happened, all documented by objects and displays. Possible to see only from outside.
This is a gorgeous gothic building, right in the heart of Torun, just opposite the town hall, on the main pedestrian area, impressive gothic architecture outside!
Fantastic entrance from the waters edge leading you into the city.
Amazing building in the form of a wardrobe. Very unique idea to present the entrance of Theatre

Alina was a fabulous guide. She was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. She chose to take us to places that we wanted to see rather than stick to an absolute route. She took us to little cafes and made it a point to take us into three churches when my travel companion asked to see churches. Her knowledge and expertise on all the local sites in her hometown of Torun were invaluable - she really can explain everything with detail. Of course, as a group of only 2, we had a much more personalized experience than if we had been in a large group, which made the day all the more enjoyable and refreshing. I have to admit that of all the tour guides I had during my stay in Poland, I enjoyed being with Alina most of all.
