Toruń is a birthplace of famous astronomer and mathematician Nicholas Copernicus who lived in the 15th century. Visit the museum dedicated to his life and work, situated in this magnificent brick house, where he was supposed to live. There is also a statue of Copernicus right in front of the old Town hall, which is the 14th century brick structure with marvelous 40-meter-high clock tower, from which you will have sensational views of the city. The Town hall used to be a seat of authorities and a court. Today you can find here a museum with the gothic art and polish paintings.

Wandering the city you can find hidden gems in the narrow streets, such as the 14th century Leaning Tower, associated with an old legend about a knight who broke his promise and fell in love with a girl.
