  • Interesting place to go in Wroclaw. The memorial to Slaughtered Animals in Wrocław. In the Middle Ages, this place was a terrible place for animals💀, but a pretty good place to buy meat 🍖. Now you can find some nice little shops...
  • Despite the handcraft shops that there are to be discovered and one of the pubs with popular «pub quizs», you will undoubtely notice the animal sculptures. They were placed there as an hommage to them, but not because they were heroes or something like this... In an earlier time when the Rynek and the Colth hall were used as a market place, not every produce could be traded there, but those supposed clean. It meant that meat had to be selled and bought a bit farther. Thus little street not far was the chisen place. In fact just in front of the animals you will still find the wood doors on the floor were merchants kept the meat (and themselves) underground to offer it to the people passing by without spreading their smell.
