Torun trip planner

The birthplace of astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, the medieval town of Torun escaped the destruction of World War II, managing to preserve most of the Gothic architecture of its historical old town. Recognized as a World Heritage Site, this central part of the city boasts the country's highest concentration of preserved Gothic houses, many still containing the original wall and ceiling decorations from the 16th century. Despite its undeniable visual appeal, Torun remains relatively undiscovered by foreign travelers, allowing you to explore undisturbed by huge crowds of sightseers. Begin at the old town's central square, the hub of Torun's social and cultural life. Add Torun and other destinations in Poland to your travel plans using our Poland trip planner.
