Overview to visit Poznan at its best

When you visit Poznan, you will find it as much a business destination as a tourist one. Every year, the International Trade Fairs, which have been held since 1921, attract hordes of businesspeople from all over the world.

Lake Malta, which flows through the heart of the city, delights tourists with its regatta course as does the Malta Ski Centre with its white slopes. If you visit in June, you could also witness the exciting Malta International Theatre Festival.

Head over to the Old Town Square where the majority of monuments and museums are located. The Museum of Musical Instruments and the Poznan City History Museum provides a taste of Polish culture. Also visit the imposing Gothic Cathedral and the Prussian Castle.

When in town, sample specialities like Plendze (potato pancakes with sugar or jam) and Pyry with gzik (un-skinned potatoes, cream, onions and cottage cheese called gzik).
