The storybook city of Bydgoszcz is a stunning mélange of Gothic and Art Nouveau architecture, 18th-century granaries, cobblestone streets and outdoor cafes. Cruise the scenic Brda River, wander the charming streets of historic Old Town, or picnic and people-watch at Mill’s Island. Thoughtful public art, a thriving jazz scene, an opera house and an extraordinary concert hall add cultural dimension to Bydgoszcz’s beauty.

On the riverside of Brda River is St. Martin and St. Nicholas Cathedral. It is a Catholic church which was built in the 15th Century and has a Gothic style and serves as a parish church and cathedral of the Diocese of Bydgoszcz. It was given cathedral status by Pope John Paul II in March 2004. Inside the cathedral it is very ornate and quite captivating. The cathedral is incredibly charming and is worth seeking out whilst in Bydgoszcz.

Natural Island in the middle of the city of Bydgoszcz. Important strategic asset during the Kingdom era
Close to Mill's Island, you will find a lot of restaurants and bars, and the island itself features a little Venice and a little of green for a nice walk after or before the dinner.

We never thought Bydgoszcz has such a nice old town, well, we never thought Bydgszcz has an old town at all, we rather associated this city with post-industrial landscape. It turns out the old town, called sometimes as location town, has a lot to offer, in terms of heritage buidings, museums, and great landscapes along the water system, which is build around Brda river. Obviously the market square, with huge Monument to Struggle and Martyrdom in Bydgoszcz (Pomnik Walki i Meczenstwa Ziemi Bydgoskiej) is the centre of it all, but I would strongly recommend a visit to Wyspa Młyńska (Mill's Island) in first place, as it seems to be the top spot, especially for live outdoor events. Many old building were refurbished recently, so it all lookes very nice indeed.

Great open space with lots of recreational fun for families with little ones. Lots of forested area with bike paths as well as a Zoo that's quite nice. If it's sunny day, this is a great escape from the city life for half a day

Quite amazing, how it balances just above the river for so many years. Unveiled on 1 may 2004, on the day Poland joined the EU - and this is to commmorate that fact, like Poles finally crossed the river, or least it seemed.... Best view from Jerzy Sulima-Kamiński bridge - that way you got all heritage buildings on Brda river embankment in the background. This sculpture is close associated with another sculpture in Bydgoszcz - Łuczniczka (te Archer woman) - both got same roman style shoes (Łuczniczka wears them, while Przechodzący got them on his shoulder), and the Walker carries an arrow, possibly released by Łuczniczka. The sculpture is right in the town centre - bridge opened for motorised trafic, so be careful. Car park just to the north of the bridge.

This amazing attraction will catapult you into a different reality! Our tour was almost 3 h long and every minute of it was fascinating because of our excellent guide. For a small fee you can get the most interesting history lesson of your life and truly feel like you are in a virtual reality scenery. You will get to walk the underground tunnels, enter secret war time buildings, interesting displays, mysterious ruins, The history of Hitler's secret ammunition factory and forced labor workforce will unveil. Do not want to give too many spoilers but this will be a very worthwhile visit as it was for us. We had a car but because of secluded location of this former factory of explosives if you are not familiar with this destination it is best to take a taxi. Bus no. 68 runs twice a day to the Exploseum . You really have to book your tour ahead of time and they fill up quickly so call ahead. There are tours in English available. There is a lot of walking. Wear comfortable shoes.

The tourist information office in Bydgoszcz is a key place to visit once you arrive to the city. The officer was extremely kind. He have us a very deep and detailed explanation of the places we couldn't miss. We also had quite a history lesson about the city and the polish culture. You can also buy tram tickets here. They give you maps and mark all the sights to see. Thank you for all your kindness!
