Its central point is the <strong>Zamek Cesarski &#8211; Imperial Palace<\/strong>, built over 100 years ago for the last German Emperor, Wilhelm II. Over the years the destiny of the Palace changed. In the interwar period university lectures took place in the palace halls, during World War II the building was adapted to serve as Hitler&#8217;s residence, and since the 1960s it has served as a&nbsp;<strong>cultural centre<\/strong> \u2013 currently the largest in Wielkopolska. Inside CK Zamek &#8211; the Palace there is the Palace Cinema, a&nbsp;modern concert hall, exhibition halls, library, bookshop, coffee bar, educational halls and space for those visiting the historic rooms of the Palace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p>At the beginning of the in the XX century, in the vicinity of the Palace, a&nbsp;group of prestigious buildings were erected: the <strong>City Theatre<\/strong> \u2013 the contemporary S.

The monument commemorates the <strong>first mass anti-Communist protest in Poland<\/strong>. The basement of the Palace is open to visitors to the new interactive <strong>Museum dedicated to the events of 28 June 1956<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>From the west to quarter is enclosed by a&nbsp;semicircular <strong>line of parks<\/strong>, which replaced the XIX century fortifications of Fortress Pozna\u0144.
