About Wrocław
The championship will be held in city of Wrocław.
Wrocław is the capital of the historical region of Lower Silesia in southwestern Poland, situated on the Odra River. The city was partly destroyed at the end of World War II; it has been now reconstructed and some of the damaged historical buildings have been restored. Wroclaw has now regained its former splendour and can pride itself on being one of the most beautiful cities of Eastern Europe.
Wrocław is an excellent example of a multicultural metropolis situated at the interface of ethnically diverse areas. With its 800 000 inhabitants it’s the fourth largest city in Poland, one of the oldest and most picturesque ones. It is considered as one of the most important economic, culture, science and sport areas. A wide educational offer of many universities and over 120 000 students have created an image of academic city. Long, interesting history, monuments and many other unforgettable places attract a big number of tourists every year.
The specific character of Wrocław’s architecture has been commented on many occasions. Authors stress an original combination of material and spiritual factors, noting the existence of numerous religious institutions, monasteries, Gothic churches, and Baroque colleges side by side with commercial establishments (there were several dozen department stores and
specialty shops in Wrocław at the turn of the century) and other splendid, often pioneering examples of secular urban architecture.
Good infrastructure and sport facilities have significant input in organisation of many sport events on high level. Furthermore lot of connections with big Polish and European cities offered by Wrocław airport, well developed train and bus transportation, big number of hotels and restaurants make the arrival and stay in the city easier.
