Poznan, a city with a rich history and vibrant culture, has become an increasingly popular destination for expats and international employees seeking a unique experience in Poland. And no, wintertime is not that cold anymore ;)
With its Old Town, bars, restaurants, cultural hotspots and welcoming locals, Poznan offers a mix of modernity and historical buildings that makes it an exciting city to live. Here's your guide to navigating life in Poznan while living at The Bank.
The Bank Poznan is in the heart of the Old Town. Old Town is the heart of the city and wandering through its cobblestone streets feels like stepping into a fairy tale. From the pictures you may already know the colorful Market Square, where you'll find cafes, restaurants, and boutique shops. Don't miss the iconic Poznan Goats on the Town Hall clock at noon. It is a tradition dating back centuries that still captivates both locals and newcomers.
Discover pierogi (dumplings), savor kielbasa (sausage), and indulge in oscypek (smoked cheese). Try local dishes at Stary Browar, a former brewery turned shopping and dining complex, where you can relish both Polish and international flavors.
Poznan's public transportation system is efficient, making it easy to explore the city and its surroundings. Using the tram and bus routes is a good option, or consider getting a city bike for a leisurely ride along the Warta River. The well-connected network ensures you can reach your destination conveniently. During summer time and spring time the e-scooters of for example DOTT are a great option. Just download the app and you can use the blue e scooters.
Connecting with fellow expats is an easy job in Poznan. There are various groups and events. For example Poznan International (Facebook) with their weekly quiznight at Bar Miasto. Or the Bla Bla language night every Wednesday (website).
Attending at local expat events or meet-ups will build you a network of friends who understand the challenges and joys of living in a new country.
Poznan hosts a variety of events and festivals throughout the year. Don't miss the Poznan Ice Festival in the winter, the Christmas market, the Malta Festival showcasing arts and culture, or the lively St. Martin's Day celebrations. Engaging in local festivities allows you to experience the city's dynamic spirit and make lasting memories.
Escape the urban lifestyle by exploring Poznan's green spaces. The Citadel Park offers a peaceful place, while Lake Malta provides opportunities for outdoor activities. Poznan is a city with almost 600.000 people and a lot to offer. If you don’t have a car, the Uber app works great to move around to specific places.
While many locals in Poznan speak English, learning a few basic Polish phrases can go a long way in connections and expressing appreciation for the local culture. Poles appreciate the effort, and a simple "Dziękuję" (thank you) or "Proszę" (please) can open doors to warm interactions.
Life in Poznan as an expat or international employee is a journey filled with discovery, cultural immersion, and warm encounters. By embracing the city's unique blend of history and modernity, connecting with the local community, and exploring all that Poznan has to offer, you're sure to make the most of your experience in this charming Polish city. So, dive in and let Poznan become your home away from home.
Na zdrowie! (Cheers!)
