Aula Leopoldina, Baroque auditorium at University of Wrocław, Poland.

The Aula Leopoldina features ornate ceiling frescoes, wooden sculptures, and stucco decorations covering the walls from floor to ceiling throughout the hall.

The auditorium was constructed between 1728 and 1732 under the supervision of Italian architect Christophorus Tausch as the university's ceremonial gathering space.

The central sculptural group displays Emperor Leopold I on a throne, accompanied by allegorical figures representing Prudence and Foresight.

Visitors can explore the auditorium daily except Wednesdays, with audio guides available in seven languages including English, German, and French.

The ceiling paintings present scientific disciplines through allegorical figures, while window alcoves showcase portraits of scholars from ancient to modern times.
