Wyspa Piasek, River island in Wrocław, Poland

The five-hectare Wyspa Piasek sits between multiple branches of the Oder River, connected to the mainland by the Piasek, Młyński, and Tumski bridges.

The Church of Our Lady on the Sand, constructed on former circus grounds, stands as the primary religious structure on Wyspa Piasek since medieval times.

Three distinct churches represent different religious traditions on the island: Catholic, Orthodox, and a former church transformed into an educational facility.

Visitors can access the island through pedestrian paths along Boulevard Stanisław Kulczyński and Boulevard Piotr Włostowic, which border the water edges.

The Maria Mill structure spans across two islands, connecting Wyspa Piasek with neighboring Wyspa Młyńska through an integrated architectural design.
