The Palmiarnia, a palm house associated with the local wine tradition, stands near the centre. Red-tiled roofs, church towers and post-war residential districts chart the city’s varied growth, while pedestrian streets around the Old Town lead to the Market Square and Town Hall. Zielona Góra is also a major administrative and academic centre for Lubusz, giving its historic core a working-city character.
