Saturday Walks 2025

Über die Veranstaltung

Last year, during the summer, I started guiding Friends, mainly from the Choir, around Warsaw. These walks turned out quite elegantly, so this year I decided to raise the level! I am proudly inviting you to this year's Saturday Walks! We will explore Warsaw, learn about its architecture, urban planning, and history! Warsaw is an exceptionally wonderful city - there is so much to see! However, we usually pass streets and houses indifferently in our daily rush. Sometimes, all it takes is for someone else to help us take a closer look, and we can discover the art, beauty, and concepts hidden behind everyday life! I hope I can intrigue you enough so that you can discover this every day on your own! 📅 The walks will take place every Saturday during the summer at 4:00 PM!
