Which historic sites shape a visit?
The Jewish cemetery on Transportowa Street is one of the oldest Jewish cemeteries in Europe. Its first written mention dates to 2 July 1399. For travellers interested in Jewish history, the site offers a different perspective from the city's sporting activities.
Ostmark Stadium also has a documented history: it opened on 27 May 1927 and has been a listed monument since 2014. Alongside its historical significance, the stadium has several sports facilities: it has six running lanes, as well as facilities for football, golf, tennis and beach volleyball. There is also an ice rink there in winter. The range of sports and the winter ice rink make the stadium a destination in its own right, whether you are mainly interested in its history or its sporting facilities.
Where can you find paths, views and other leisure activities?
Park Rozrywki i Rekreacji has extensive walking paths and viewing terraces with beautiful views. If you do not want to spend all your time cycling, the paths and terraces offer a different setting for enjoying the outdoors. The observation tower adds another place to take in the view. Check its opening hours when planning your visit: it is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Another option for staying active is the skatepark by the bus station, which also has a modular pump track. Together with the cycling routes and sports facilities at Ostmark Stadium, it demonstrates a range of activities, though they are spread across different locations and types of facility. Your choice will therefore depend on whether you want to focus on a longer cycling route, sports facilities, skating, walking paths or views.
