I'm glad I can be here with all of you during Museum Night, when after dark the people of Wrocław set out to tour mu- seums, galleries, often very outstanding, original and interesting places. Today we are inaugurating our new project – City Culture Code. With it we hope to create ambitious enterprises which underlie our strategy as a future European Capital of Culture. This program, unique in our country, is to encourage the people of Wrocław to participate more in cultural events – the more you go to the theater or museums, the more discounted tickets for other events you will receive. Wrocław's ambition is to become a recognizable cultural center in Europe. Receiving the title of European Capital of Culture 2016 is proof that we are headed in the right direction and the turnout during Museum Night reassures us that our objectives are definitely realistic.

    TECHNICAL TRANSACTIONS CZASOPISMO TECHNICZNE ARCHITECTURE ARCHITEKTURA 5-A/2015 BARBARA PIERŚCIONEK∗ THE INFLUENCE OF CHANGES IN THE CITY INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE TYPE OF PARKS ILLUSTRATED BY THE SZCZYTNICKI PARK IN WROCŁAW WPŁYW ZMIAN INFRASTRUKTURY MIEJSKIEJ NA CHARAKTER ZAŁOŻEŃ PARKOWYCH NA PRZYKŁADZIE PARKU SZCZYTNICKIEGO WE WROCŁAWIU Abstract The paper is an continuation of author’s reflections about the historical parks in Wrocław, which beauty is in danger of loss due to man’s activities. The focus of the paper is on the very controversial issue of recent years – building the inner city ring road in Wrocław. The planned location of the ring road crosses Szczyt- nicki Park – one of the oldest historical parks in the city. The project included the location of a four-lane street on the edge of the park and crossing far coherent historical urban complex (the components of this complex are remarkable modernistic building such as: UNESCO WHO Heritage site – Centennial Hall, Zoological Garden, WUWA Exhibition Area, Olimpic Stadium and housing estates Sępolno and Biskupin) generates multifaceted social conflicts. Keywords: Szczytnicki Park, Wroclaw, historical urban park, restoration and preservation Streszczenie Artykuł stanowi kontynuację rozważań autorki, dotyczących zabytkowych parków Wrocławia, których piękno może zostać wkrótce utracone w wyniku działalności człowieka. Główny nacisk położono na bar- dzo kontrowersyjny w ostatnich latach temat budowy obwodnicy śródmiejskiej Wrocławia, której pla- nowany bieg przecina Park Szczytnicki, jedno z najstarszych zabytkowych założeń parkowych miasta. Projekt przeprowadzenia w obrzeżach parku czteropasmowej drogi, przecinającej spójny dotąd zabytkowy kompleks urbanistyczny, którego elementy stanowią wybitne osiągnięcia architektury modernistycznej (m.in. wpisana na Listę Światowego Dziedzictwa Kulturalnego i Przyrodniczego UNESCO Hala Stulecia, Ogród Zoologiczny, teren wystawy WUWA, Stadion Olimpijski oraz osiedla Sępolno i Biskupin), generuje wielopłaszczyznowe konflikty społeczne.

  • St. John's Cathedral Wrocław
    St. John’s Cathedral Wrocław The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Wrocław, (Polish: Archikatedra św. Jana Chrzciciela, German: Breslauer Dom, Kathedrale St. Johannes des Täufers), is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Wrocław and a landmark of the city of Wrocław in Poland. The cathedral, located in the Ostrów Tumski district, is a Gothic church with Neo-Gothic additions. The current standing cathedral is the fourth church to have been built on the site. The cathedral was almost entirely destroyed (about 70% of the construction) during the Siege of Breslau and heavy bombing by the Red Army in the last days of World War II. Parts of the interior fittings were saved and are now on display at the National Museum in Warsaw. The initial reconstruction of the church lasted until 1951, when it was reconsecrated by Archbishop Stefan Wyszyński. In the following years, additional aspects were rebuilt and renovated. The original, conical shape of the towers was restored only in 1991. Wroclaw Town Hall The Old Town Hall (Polish: Stary Ratusz) of Wroclaw stands at the center of the city’s Market Square (rynek). Wroclaw is the largest city in western Poland and isthe site of many beautiful buildings. The Old Town Hall's long history reflects the developments that have taken place in the city over time since its initial construction. The town hall serves the city of Wroclaw and is used for civic and cultural events such as concerts held in its Great Hall. In addition to a concert hall, it houses a museum and a basement restaurant.

The work includes references to the basic programme documents and strategies. It shows regeneration activities carried out in Wrocław in connection with the organization of international events, cultural and sport events, and with the improvement of spatial order. These actions contributed to the revitalization of the image of the city. The paper contains the results of these changes, the complementarity of decisions and their impact on social behaviour. Keywords: Wrocław, strategy, revitalisation programmes, investments for Euro 2012, public space, WUWA 2. 1. THESIS Revitalisation programmes have become a tool of socio - spatial transformations of a city, its most devastated and impoverished areas, as well as neglected historic buildings and sites; they were developed in parallel with visions of Wrocław development as a open, metropolitan city which cooperates with the region and plays a significant role in the country and Europe. The implementation of revitalization programmes is a long-term, multi-faceted and mutable activity, planned for many years. After a dozen years of intensive revitalization activities, a number of investments were realised, which contributed to a new quality of residents' lives and Wroclaw's built-up area. 1 Corresponding author: Wrocław University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture, B.

  • The Characteristics of Cultural Tourists Who Visit Urban Jewish Heritage Centres: the Case Study of Visitors to the White Stork Synagogue in Wroc Ław
    DOI: 10.1515/tour-2016-0014 e-ISSN 2080-6922 ISSN 0867-5856 Tourism 2016, 26/2 Magdalena Duda-Seifert Wrocław University Institute of Geography and Regional Development Department of Regional Geography and Tourism [email protected] THE CHARACTERISTICS OF CULTURAL TOURISTS WHO VISIT URBAN JEWISH HERITAGE CENTRES: THE CASE STUDY OF VISITORS TO THE WHITE STORK SYNAGOGUE IN WROC ŁAW Abstract: Since the White Stork Synagogue in Wrocław has been restored, opened to visitors and become a part of the so-called District of the Four Faiths promoted by the city council, both the synagogue and its neighbourhood have become tourist attractions which support Wrocław’s image as a multicultural city. Therefore, the aim of the article is to identify the characteristics of tourists visiting the synagogue which could help understand the specific features of those attracted by urban Jewish heritage. As a result of research with the use of surveys, interviews and observation, the highly emotive cognitive approach of tourists has been determined as the dominant feature in this niche market. Moreover, its strongly international character and its specific age and education structure have been pinpointed. These features form the basis for the conclusion that the tourists attracted by urban Jewish heritage form a very specific niche market which can be targeted especially by large cities through the development of themed tourist products. Keywords: cultural tourism, Jewish heritage, Wrocław. 1. INTRODUCTION The development of cultural tourism has attracted the KRUCZEK 2014, WILKOŃSKA 2010), while the White attention of researchers in recent years.

  • The Collective Memory of a City. the Case of Wrocław
    BARBARA PABJAN Institute of Sociology, University of Wrocław The collective memory of a city. The case of Wrocław What is the collective memory of a city and collective memory? Th is paper examines the collective memory of a city’s population. Th e col- lective memory of a city is defi ned here as a collective image of the city’s history, particularly in connection with the urban space. For a sociologist, a city is not only a material substance — urban space, buildings, but also the community which creates a city. Th erefore the collective memory of a city is associated with urban space and its meanings and the activity of its inhabitants (commemorative practices). Th is article proposes a sociological analysis of the memory of a city by which I mean an empirical study of 1) the collective knowledge of the inhabit- ants about their city’s past, 2) collective practices of commemoration. Collect- ive means shared by a substantial part of the population. Memory as knowledge about the past is framed and shaped by the social context and this is a fundamen- tal assumption for the sociological analysis of memory (Halbwachs 1950; Misztal 2006; Szacka 2006). Th e memory of the city’s past is represented in the collective memory of the city’s community as well as in urban space. Identity is an import- ant category of an analysis of collective memory. Memory and identity are con- cepts that are closely linked. Th e reconstruction of memory about the city is at the same time the reconstruction of the city’s identity: “Memory is knowledge with an identity-index, it is knowledge about oneself, that is, one’s own diachronic identity, be it as an individual or as a member of a family, a generation, a community, a na- tion, or a cultural and religious tradition” (Assmann 2008, 114).
