Główna

Główna is a residential district in Poznań situated where the Główna River meets the Warta River on its right bank. The area spans about 6.82 square kilometers and mixes older industrial zones with newer housing developments.

The railway line connecting Poznań to Inowrocław opened in 1872 and sparked rapid growth and industrial development in this area. This connection transformed the district into an important hub for work and housing.

The Church of the Immaculate Conception of Mary with its neobaroque design marks the heart of the neighborhood and reflects long religious traditions here. The building sits among working-class homes and shows how faith and everyday life connect in this place.

The area is well served by buses from MPK Poznań on lines 70, 72, 73, and 85, making different parts easy to reach. Poznań Wschód railway station provides connections to other regions and sits in a central location.

Kajka Pond formed from an old clay pit and now sits within gardens named after writer Eliza Orzeszkowa. This transformed site shows how industrial land became green space.
