We didn’t know much about Poznan before we visited the city in summer 2014 and we fell in love with this polish gem. Our stay in Poznan was so great that we keep sending our friends there and, after a while, we realized that we never wrote a proper guide to Poznan. So, if you are looking for a guide to this city, you can stop you search because now you will see a lot of things to do in Poznan.

The first time we visited Sweden, we also visited Älvsborg Fortress in Gothenburg. This large fortress is located, strategically, in Göta River since it was built to protect what was then the only access Sweden had to the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.
