A huge model that shows Poznań in its form as presented in Brau-Hogenburg’s picture sketched in 1618. Constructed over a period of six years the model takes up a space of 50m2 and is built on a scale of 1:150. The decorative details are impressive, and you can expect lots of kids as well as anoraked model enthusiasts pulling up the school seats around it as they wait for the show to begin. As the lights dim a recorded commentary begins and visitors are taken through the area-by-area story of Poznań’s development. Foreigners get given headsets to listen to heavily accented commentary in the language of their choice, though this is at times drowned out by hilarious background noise that includes medieval soldiers screaming in agony. And it doesn't end there. Now added are similar models depicting Poznan in the 11th century, as well as a detailed model of the main square.

Admission 14/10zł for kids under ten, groups over 20 people 10zł per person.
