The idea to design a “glass architecture” map of Wrocław was conceived two years ago during preparations for the Play with Glass – European Glass Festival in Wrocław project. We decided to “bring out of hiding” and make an inventory of the glass artworks in the city’s public buildings and churches, and on its squares and streets...
“Glass in Wrocław’s urban space” is a totally new project, for previously, there was no literature available on Wrocław’s glass architecture. Urszula Łączna collaborated with Ewelina Kwiatkowska to complete some meticulous detective work, in order
to track down the creators of these glass artworks and check all the information that they passed on.
A fountain, glazed works, an elevation, stained glass, a mosaic, a sculpture, a glass installation… we have described 54
of Wrocław’s glass architecture objects and buildings. 14 of them are on the route of Wrocław’s first “glass trail”.
We hope that the “Wrocław Old Town Glass Trial” will be one of the most important attractions in Wrocław, the “city of glass”.
