Street in Poznan
Ostrow Tumski (Cathedral Island) is the oldest part of Poznan, an island in the Warta River with the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul (free to enter the nave, crypt paid) and the Interactive Centre for the History of Ostrow Tumski (paid, modest). The island is considered the birthplace of the Polish nation (the first Polish ruler was baptized here in 966). Budget travelers cross the bridge to the island and stand where Poland began.

Poznan's Stary Rynek (Old Market Square) is one of the largest and most colorful in Poland, with the Renaissance Town Hall at its center. At noon every day, two mechanical goats emerge from the clock tower and butt heads 12 times.
