The terrain of Greater Poland Voivodeship ranges from glacial lake districts in the north to broad lowlands in the south, creating a largely open landscape shaped by waterways and farming. The Warta, one of Poland’s principal rivers, crosses the region and flows through Poznań, its largest city and a major centre of trade, education and industry. Greater Poland has a central place in the country’s early history: Gniezno is closely associated with the beginnings of the Polish state, while Poznań’s Ostrów Tumski contains the city’s cathedral. Lakes, forests and cultivated fields give the voivodeship a distinctly inland character beyond its urban centres.

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War. The Białowieża Forest preserves one of Europe’s last primeval lowland forests and is home to European bison. Follow how Poland’s regions relate to one another by browsing webcams across the country.
