Travel / Where can you get a good cuppa coffee in Wroclaw? [7]

Where (in your opinion) can you get a good cuppa coffee in Wroclaw?

Genealogy / Polish: Gusepa Mabersko [3]

I also know that when she reached America she changed her name from Gusepa to Josephine

find the official record relating to this, if there is one.

check: passenger lists/ ship's records. they may show country of origin.

check: naturalization records.

Keep in mind that you'll get very little help unless you provide dates.

UK, Ireland / Polish city that's moved to Britain [120]

Shared thoughts across two threads. It's too late to merge them. One of the threads may be closed, if folk can't keep within the limit of each thread's title and opening post. Thank you.

Travel / Trip to Poznan and Torun [19]

how far outside the centre Wrocław train station is

I would stick to the original plan and go to Torun. I'd hate to be the one who persuaded you to come here when your thoughts are elsewhere.

But for others following the thread. Wroclaw's main railway station is a twenty minute walk from the centre/Rynek.

Most objects of interest are within sight of each other or only minutes apart. Wroclaw is a two/three day city at most.

Travel / Trip to Poznan and Torun [19]

check the opening hours. for a few attractions the tourist season does not include february.

the best of wroclaw can be seen in one day. however, wandering around without knowing what you are looking at will prove to be a waste of a day.

tourist websites are not always the best place to find information. check a few photo websites like flickr. one can also find tourist/city info on facebook.
