Discovering Poland's WINE CAPITAL - Zielona Góra & Winobranie

🍷 *Did you know Poland has a historic wine capital?* Welcome to Zielona Góra, a beautiful city in western Poland where winemaking traditions stretch back more than 700 years! In this episode of A Brit in Poland, I explore Zielona Góra during **Winobranie 2026**, the city's famous annual wine festival. With lively streets, traditional wine stalls, colourful parades and thousands of visitors, it's one of the most extraordinary times to experience this historic Polish city. But there's much more to Zielona Góra than wine! 🇵🇱 *In this video, we discover:* The historic Old Town, medieval Hunger Tower and beautiful churches The fascinating history of Grünberg and the city's transformation after World War II Muzeum Ziemi Lubuskiej and the region's wine heritage Wine Hill (Wzgórze Winne) and the spectacular Palmiarnia The amusing Bachusiki sculptures hidden around the city Bacchus, St Urban and Zielona Góra's unusual monuments Winobranie 2026 and its enormous, colourful parade Practical impressions of visiting during Poland's famous wine festival From medieval vineyards and historic sparkling-wine producers to the remarkable revival of local winemaking, Zielona Góra has a story worth discovering. And while I may have been slightly distracted by churches, museums and tiny bronze characters to sample much wine, I certainly enjoyed exploring this charming corner of Poland! 😅 *Would you visit Zielona Góra during Winobranie, or would you prefer to explore the city on a quieter day?
