Square in Poznan

Poznan Old Market Square

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. Free. The surrounding merchants’ houses are painted in bright colors. Budget travelers time their visit for the noon goat show and eat at the cheap restaurants behind the square.
