What to expect

Embarking on this guided walking tour of Toruń is akin to stepping into a time machine. The journey goes beyond mere historical facts, weaving in fascinating anecdotes, curiosities, and legends that breathe life into the city's past.

Toruń is a place where history and modernity coexist harmoniously, with each street harbouring its own tale. As you stroll through the Old Town, you'll be enveloped by the spirit of bygone eras. Cobbled streets, Gothic walls, and the aroma of freshly baked gingerbread combine to create an atmosphere that is uniquely Toruń.

In just two hours, you'll encounter some of the city's most iconic landmarks. Marvel at the Old Town Hall, the city's crown jewel, and visit the House of Copernicus, birthplace of the renowned astronomer. Discover the centuries-old secrets hidden within the Leaning Tower and admire the Gothic splendour of the Franciscan Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Explore the baroque beauty of Star House and St. John’s Cathedral, home to Poland’s largest medieval bell, Tuba Dei. Your journey will also take you past medieval city walls, towers, granaries, Artus Court, Eskens’ Palace, and Dąbski Palace.

Your tour will be further enriched by encounters with Toruń’s most unforgettable characters. From the legendary Raftsman and the Frogs to the infamous donkey, the friendly dog Filuś, and the mysterious cat watching from the rooftops of the Old Town Square, these charming figures add a touch of whimsy to your city exploration.
