Did you know that in 2025 Wrocław turned into one large construction site? Of course, we are not talking about concrete jungles and concrete, but about thoughtful renovations of the city's historical pearls. Town Hall, the Grunwald Bridge, and even those charming tenements you always talk about: "Magdaleno, how they hold!" - They all undergo spectacular metamorphoses. Let's see what works are carried out and what new for us was prepared by Wroclaw reconstruction!
Town Hall in Wrocław: A flash of the 21st century
The Wrocław Town Hall is a showcase of the city, and its neo -Gothic facades attract the eye of thousands of tourists a year. In 2025, a large -scale renovation works will begin, which includes, among others Cleaning the facade, sculpture maintenance and roof repair. The planned renovation completion is November 2025, and the total investment cost is about PLN 8 million.
During the renovation, it is also planned to modernize lighting for energy-saving LEDs. "Okay, but is it necessary?" - a more conservative resident will ask. Well, yes! Lighting will not only improve visibility during walks at night, but also reduce the city's bills by about PLN 40,000 a year. And who doesn't like to save?
Grunwald Bridge: Structure of the structure and new approaches
The Grunwald Bridge, which connects two banks of the Oder, is undergoing one of the most complex renovations in its history. Strengthening the pillars, replacement of load -bearing ropes and renovation of the surface - all that the bridge can serve residents for the next decades.
The total cost of work is about PLN 35 million, and the date of their completion is scheduled for October 2025. As a result of the renovation, you can expect light traffic problems, although you can safely say that a bit of traffic jams is a price for safety, right? Well, unless you just have a date in the center and you don't want to be late ...
Tenements at Św. Antoni: Beauty with details
Tenement houses at ul. Saint. Antoni is one of the more picturesque corners of Wrocław. In 2025, renovation work includes the reconstruction of the facade, including the restoration of stucco and frescoes destroyed by time. The cost of the entire investment is about PLN 6 million.
During the renovation, it is also planned to adapt several premises for cultural needs. Imagine small art galleries or intimate cafes that invite residents and tourists to a cup of freshly brewed coffee in renovated interiors. I already feel the smell of this coffee, and you?
Mary Magdalena's Church: Legendary maintenance
St. Mary Magdalena, known for her legendary footbridge, also undergoes extensive work. The maintenance of gothic walls and repair of roofs destroyed by wind and time are priorities for 2025. These works are to be completed in December 2025, and the cost is about PLN 12 million.
During the renovation, according to the design, new stained glass windows will also be installed. "What if the stained glass windows are too modern?" - Some may be afraid. Well, without fear - designers make sure that the new stained glass windows are in line with the spirit of the place, and at the same time give it a modern accent. Finally, as someone said: "Tradition is not storing ashes, but maintaining fire."
Costs, dates, difficulties - what, where, when?
There are no repairs without costs and there is no reconstruction without light difficulties. During work at the town hall, you can expect some pedestrian crossings, but by the end of 2025 everything is to return to normal. The Grunwald Bridge will be partially closed to car traffic, and at the church of St. Mary Magdalena can expect scaffolding, which will undoubtedly add the notes of the industrial climate to this area.
But admit it yourself - how often do we have the opportunity to watch Wrocław in the version on "After renovations"? In a few years, when we will walk around the renovated city, we will mention with a smile: "Do you remember these traffic jams at the bridge? It was worth it!"
