I love travelling and architecture. Recently I'm especially interested in brutalist architecture style and trends from the communist era in the Eastern Block (Bucharest was especially interesting for that reason). My other passions are gardening and playing rpg games, like dungeons and dragons. I'm very passionate and a good story teller

Tour description

Wrocław is a city shaped not only by history, but also by legends and stories passed down through generations. This guided walking tour leads you through Ostrów Tumski and the Market Square - the oldest and most atmospheric parts of the city.

Along the way, you will discover captivating legends: the story of a mysterious head hidden inside the cathedral walls, the famous Bell of Sinners, the romantic tale of the Bridge of Lovers, and the humorous legend of a dumpling that escaped the pot and climbed to the top of a gate. Each location reveals a story where folklore, symbolism and local imagination meet.

This tour is perfect for visitors who want to experience Wrocław in a more engaging way — through legends, emotions and stories that bring the city’s past to life.
