Explore the historic city of Toruń, a beautifully preserved UNESCO World Heritage Site on the banks of the Vistula River. Unaffected by World War II, its Old Town retains an authentic medieval layout and outstanding architectural heritage.
Upon arrival, meet your local guide and begin a walking tour through the city’s most iconic landmarks. See the Leaning Tower, part of the original medieval fortifications, and admire the impressive Town Hall and Artus Court. Continue to the nearby New Town, founded in the 13th century and later integrated into the Hanseatic League, where you can take in red-brick merchant houses and Gothic church spires, including the Church of St. James.
The tour also includes the ruins of the Teutonic Order Castle, destroyed by local residents in 1454, and the birthplace of Nicolaus Copernicus, where you’ll learn more about the renowned astronomer’s life and achievements.
To round off the experience, sample Toruń’s famous gingerbread, prepared according to a traditional 16th‑century recipe, an essential part of the city’s cultural heritage.
