After culture and economic war in Poznań (won by Poles) we had WWI it was great opportunity...

The Greater Poland Uprising of 1918–1919, or Wielkopolska Uprising of 1918–1919 or Posnanian War was a military insurrection of Poles in the Greater Poland against Germany.

This year we have 90th anniversary.

If you go on Stary Rynek (Old Market) around old Towns Hall you will find nice exhibition around buildings. 90 anniversary is very close and there are nice pictures presented there. I have been looking for them on interenet but I couldn't find them. They are realy interesting.

Old Market durring up rise whole in Polish flags (Old market has been always in Polish "hands") etc.
