In the heart of Wrocław

The Centennial Hall complex in Wrocław is a unique place that combines history, culture, architecture and entertainment. The main element of the complex is the Centennial Hall, which was designed by architect Max Berg and built between 1911 and 1913. Thanks to its original reinforced concrete structure, it was a pioneering work of engineering and architecture, and today it is a symbol of Wrocław. In 2006, the Centennial Hall was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, which confirms its exceptional historical and cultural value. The hall and the whole complex are located in a picturesque part of the city, surrounded by Szczytnicki Park, near the Oder River. This place is eagerly visited not only by participants of events, but also by locals and tourists. Around the hall there are spacious walking areas, benches, green lawns and places to relax. The complex includes:

‍

• Centennial Hall — one of the most important elements of the building is its dome. It is 65 meters in diameter and reaches 42 meters high from floor level, making it one of the largest concrete roofs in the world. It was also the largest dome in the world (regardless of technology — with the largest diameter, larger than, among others, the dome of the Pantheon or Hagia Sophia). Inside there is a huge space of the main hall, which can accommodate up to 10,000 people for various events.
• Wrocław Congress Centre — modern conference room space, suitable for smaller and larger business meetings, conferences or congresses.
• Pergola and Multimedia Fountain — a walking structure surrounding one of the most impressive fountains in Europe. During the season, water, light and music shows are held here, attracting many spectators.
• Plac pod Iglica — an open space with a characteristic 96-meter steel spire.

The Centennial Hall complex is a place where the past meets the present. This is not only a historical building, but also an active space for modern events: concerts, fairs, exhibitions, conferences and mass events. This place is bustling with life all year round and is an important point on the cultural and social map of Wrocław.

The church, which today stands in the southern part of Szczytnicki Park, near Kopernika Street, was built in the first half of the 17th century in Stary Koźl. Then he was transferred to Kędzierzyn, and in 1913 he ended up in Wrocław.

It was part of the great Centennial Exhibition (presenting, among others, the history of Silesia) in the section devoted to garden and cemetery art.

The church is included in the register of monuments, today it is no longer a place of worship. Currently, this wooden church operates the Open Space of Culture, the space of the Wrocław Center for Social Development - film and theater screenings, as well as literary meetings and concerts.

In the raw, industrial walls of the former Dąbie Depot today there is Space-Time — a place outside the center and outside the mainstream. Space-Time, or Centre for Academic Culture and Local Initiatives, is run by the Raft Association. Cultural events, workshops, fairs and outdoor meetings are held here. It is a space open to residents, students and tourists, conducive to integration and active pastime.

The history of the building is already more than 110 years — in the years 1913-2014 it served as the Dąbie depot — a place where city trams were served. The depot was part of the transport infrastructure of Wrocław, ensuring the smooth functioning of public transport in the district. The preserved elements of industrial architecture give the building a unique character today.
