About Brama Poznania

Brama Poznania presents the history of Ostrów Tumski in an interpretation centre near the cathedral island. The contemporary building creates a contrast with the historic core and helps place the earliest settlements before the walk among the monuments.

The exhibition uses interpretive resources to explain the island’s development and its relation to the country’s formation. It is not a religious collection inside the cathedral: the program provides context to understand the surrounding urban and archaeological ensemble.

Check the language of the visitor resources and the makeup of the route before entering. It can be useful to see the exhibition before heading to the cathedral, allowing time for both sites. The passage between the centre and the island is part of the route, with access granted according to local instructions.
