Our city KING is the stork, the biggest bird living in Poland. In Wroclaw they are living just besides the UNESCO monument, the People's Hall.

We are all very happy to have them in the center of city. We think, storks brings happiness :) Storks on phoro are very young, have been born in this place and they will fly to Africa in coming days. We are sure, they will be back to us next year on 21 March (spring time).
