Srodka Wall mural Śródka Tale with Trumpeter on the Roof and Cat in the Background
ommissioned by the chairman of the district council and completed in 2015, the artwork is meant to celebrate the long history of this neighbourhood, which was its own independent city from the 15th century until its integration into Poznań in 1800. The design emulates the city streets of one hundred years ago, as inspired by a 1920’s photograph of the area. In addition to the titular cat and trumpeter, the painting also features an early-20th-century butcher shop - which used to be located in the very building it now adorns - and a portrait of Prince Władysław Odonic, who founded Śródka in approximately 1234.
