Renaissance Poznań, 1560

Poznań in 1560 stands at the height of its role as a trade hub between east and west, its streets full of goods, barges and foreign merchants. The rebuilt Renaissance town hall dominates the Old Market with its arcades and clockwork goats; beyond it the brick towers of the cathedral mark Ostrów Tumski and the Warta carries grain, furs and fish to the city.

25 scenes, 17 streets, squares and views, 8 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Poznań as it stood in 1560 (“History of Poznań”).
