This magnificent red-brick wall was built in 1548, then dismantled in the 19th century before being rebuilt along with the old town after the Second World War. This complex surrounds almost half of the historic center. Walking west along the walls from the castle, a statue of a little boy dressed as a soldier, with an oversized German helmet (Pomnik Małego Powstańca z 1944 r.), pays tribute to the young insurgents.

Une très belle reconstitution pour ces remparts et la porte qui sépare la vielle ville de la nouvelle. Magnifique en fin de journée quand le soleil couchant embrase la brique. Vous y rencontrerez peut-être un curieux personnage.

La Barbacane, point d'entrée dans la vieille ville, accueille entre autres des artistes peintres... de la vous pouvez vous promener sur les remparts, ce qui constitue une jolie ballade.

Les remparts de la vieille ville sont magnifiques, et ponctués par quelques tours. Bien que récents et datant d'après la seconde guerre mondiale, ces remparts donnent un air médiéval agréable.

BARBACAN = Pregnant of the old town: to visit!
Wall built in 1548 and dismantled in the 19th century, because become needless, the ramparts of the old town of Warsaw were rebuilt after the Second World War: it encircles almost half of the old town. Close by, do not miss " voir" painters…
The barbican marks the exit of the old town: it is also a building rebuilt after the Second World War.
