    by Kinia
    It took 30 years to build it but finally we made it :-) I mean still there are some things tthat need to be done around the building.. but they promised to finish it this summer.. We will see. Anyway Oera Nova is one of the biggest one in Poland.

    The greatest success of Opera NOVA is the 'Bydgoszcz Opera Festival', launched in 1994. Since then the Bydgoszcz opera stage has been the venue for annual meetings of music theatres, which present their best productions (operas, operettas, ballets and musicals).
    Every year the 'Bydgoszcz Opera Festival' plays host some great guests: the A. Makarov Ballet Theatre from St. Petersburg, the National Opera Establishment from Sofia, the Academic Ballet Theatre of the Republic of Belarus from Minsk, the National Opera Establishment of Ukraine from Kiev, the J.K. Tyl Memorial Theatre from Pilsen, the National Opera Establishment of Latvia from Riga, the Royal Ballet Society of Flanders from Antwerp, Hubbard Street Dance from Chicago, and Cullbergballet from Stockholm.

  • Saint Clares Church - Bydgoszcz
    Saint Clares Church
    by ZiOOlek
    It is a small, Gothic-Renaissance, one-aisle, Roman Catholic church, built between 1582 – 1602 on the site of the wooden chapel of the Holy Ghost. The church boasts a polychrome caissons ceiling and a chapel with a Renaissance attic (from 1646). I

    n the interior, there is a Gothic chandelier, two magnificent wrought-iron gratings and a wooden altar from the 17th century as well as a painting of Saint Stanisław Kostka by Leon Wyczółkowski. Till 1818 the church belonged to the monastery of the order of St. Clare. In 1835 it was converted to a warehouse, and in 1875 – a fire station. In 1878 – 1937 and in 1992 – 1993 the church was thoroughly renovated. Every day (at 9 am, midday, 3 pm and 6 pm) the Bydgoszcz bugle-call, based on motifs from regional Kashubian cheers and composed (in 1946) by Konrad Pałubicki, is played.

    Complex of buildings built in XIX century located on river Brda and Mlynowka.
    There are buildings of unknown architects such as these best architects like Jozef Swiecicki.
    This part of old town is similar to Venezia, because of that it is called Bydgoszcz Venezia (Bydgoska Wenecja).

    It is a nice place for quiet walking.

    by sihi
    There is three warehouses (spichrz in polish) staying together on bank of Brda river.
    They were used for keeping food products that had to be transported by water way to Gdansk.
    Three warehouses picturesquely accompany to Bydgoszcz old town. They became a symbol of the city.
    Today local museum locates in these warehouses.
