Best walking tour in Warsaw

 

 

 

The walking tour in Warsaw starts at Old Town, the historic centre of the city. In this district, you’ll see the main sight of Old Town, Market Square. For years, this square was the heart of Warsaw, the place where daily life was concentrated. Here you can find many events, ceremonies, and markets.

Many colourful houses and alleys characterized the square. They were entirely rebuilt after the bombings of the Second World War. The war destroyed a large part of the city. In the centre of the square, you’ll find the Little Mermaid Statue, considered the sister of the famous statue in Copenhagen. According to legend, the little mermaid lived in the Warsaw river and the fishermen caught her. She was later freed and has been protecting the city ever since.

From the old town, you’ll move to Castle Square, one of the main sights of the city.

Castle Square is the place that connects the Old Town and the New Town. Its name comes from the Royal Castle located here. It is one of the most important historical places in the city. This is one of the liveliest squares in all of Warsaw. It is also an ideal place to discover the nightlife of the city.

In the centre of the square, you’ll find Sigismund’s column, built in honour of the king who moved the country’s capital from Kraków to Warsaw. The king made a very important decision for his citizens.

The Castle was the official seat of the Polish monarchs. It was one of the political meeting places, but also a cultural centre. During the Second World War, the Nazis destroyed it. The reconstruction took place in 1971 and ended in 1984. Today it is an important museum that you can visit inside.
