The 104th anniversary of the outbreak of the Greater Poland Uprising

The celebrations of the 104th anniversary of the victorious Wielkopolska Uprising will traditionally begin on 26 December with a staging of Ignacy Jan Paderewski’s historic arrival in Poznan. We invite you to Poznań Summer Railway Station, where at 3:45 p.m. we will jointly welcome the Master, whose role will be played by a Nowy Teatr actor Andrzej Lajborek. The musical setting will be provided by Ryszard Łuczak together with the Ignacy Jan Paderewski Poznań Teachers’ Choir.

The staging will conclude with a ride from Poznań to Swarzędz with Ignacy Jan Paderewski, in special retro wagons from the era, provided by the Wielkopolska Railways. Tickets for the train ride, priced at PLN 10 (there and back), can be purchased online via the following website: https://koleje-wielkopolskie.com.pl/

On 27 December we also would like to encourage you to take part in the city game “Pierwsze Iskry” prepared by the company Projekt gramiejska.pl – registration at https://miastotoplansza.pl/pierwsze-iskry/

The full programme of celebrations can be found on the website of the Wielkopolska Museum of Independence.

Let’s celebrate together!
