    • MERCHANTS' HOUSES • These are probably the m • MERCHANTS' HOUSES • These are probably the most recognisable houses on the Poznań's Old Market Square 🏘 How cute are they, right?! 💕
.
Situated on the south side of the town hall, they are a relic of old commercial facilities. In the Middle Ages, there were wooden shacks in this place, where the merchants would sell herring, salt, ropes, torches and candles 🐟🕯
.
🏠 Over time, brick replaced the wood and a row of narrow, one- and two-axis tenement houses were built, serving the owners for an apartment. As time passed, the arcades were walled up, creating small shops
.
🏩 The tenement houses were almost completely destroyed during World War II. After the war, the arcades were reconstructed using original, Renaissance details. 
.
🎭 The narrow, single- and double-window facades of most of the tenement houses are covered with polychromes designed by Zbigniew Bednarowicz, made in 1953–1961.

    • TOWN HALL & GOATS • The Town Hall in Poznań • TOWN HALL & GOATS • The Town Hall in Poznań is undoubtedly the most important symbol of the city and the central point of the Old Market Square 🏫
. 
No trip to Poznań can take place without watching two billy goats appear on the top of the tower and butt heads! 🐐🐐
.
They are, of course, not real goats, but a part of a clock mechanism - cuckoo clock style 🤓
.
It takes place every day at 12 noon ⏳ There's also a live trumpet call just before the hour strikes, a good reminder to stop and look up! 📯

    • ONE CONTROVERSIAL FOUNTAIN • Here you go, so • ONE CONTROVERSIAL FOUNTAIN • Here you go, some more beautiful Poznań facades for you on this Sunday evening! 🏩💃🏻
.
There are 4 fountains on the Old Market Square in Poznań - this is the Fountain of Apollo, a Greek god of sun and light, the embodiment of harmony and moral virtue🏛
.
I decided to post a photo of the back of the fountain, because I found a fun fact about it! 😃 The sculpture here is criticised by art experts and prudish people. 👨‍🎨 First ones have objections to the proportions of the divine body, the second - to his bare, protruding buttocks! 🙈🙊

.
The Wieliczka Salt Mine is one of the most frequently visited tourist sites in the world! Nearly 1.86 million tourist visited it in 2019 🌐
.
It boasts kilometres of walkways and ramps, magnificent chambers, lakes and breathtaking salt statues 💫

🗯 Many people are actually quite surprised by how huge the Mine is. The Tourist Route involves almost 800 steps to climb and over 2 kilometres of meandering corridors. The tour lasts 2 hours, although this part of the Mine makes up for only 1% of the entire underground world!
