After six-year break, Włocławek is going to host a bigger stage of basketball. The Champions’ Court – which is a daily home to Anwil Wloclawek basketball powerhouse – will be a scene of the international battle between Poland and Estonia in the EuroBasket 2025 Qualifiers game – Thursday, 21st.
Anwil Włocławek will be represented by a couple of guys, who will have a chance to shine in front of their crazy crowd in the circumstances of the national teams battle. Team Poland’s veteran Michal Michalak and American-born with Polish citizenship Luke Petrasek, as well as the well-known assistant coach Grzegorz Kozan – all being members of Anwil Wloclawek – know very well what means the energy from the Włocławek arena. Now they’re gonna see the support of their fans in the colors of white and red.
However, Włocławek is much more than basketball.

Statistics show that Włocławek is inhabited by a little over 100 thousand people, but when it comes to the whole municipality, it can be around 130 thousand people. Companies operating in chemical, food, metal, construction and power industries are thriving in Włocławek. But it is not what attract the most.
Despite the fact the city is rather small, it offers a plenty of advantages and possibilities of spending some quality free time when it comes to history and culture: from ancient churches to modern museums, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. And don’t forget to indulge in the tasty local food and drink.
You can visit the Cathedral Basilica, a stunning 14th-century Gothic church. You can learn about the city’s history at the Museum of Włocławek, showcasing exhibits on art, archaeology, and ethnography. After that pleasant activity, you can get more of walking along the Vistula River, simultaneously admiring the picturesque views of the city. Hungry? Enjoy traditional Polish cuisine at some fancy restaurants – the city is the core of Polish traditional pierogi (dumplings with meat) or czernina (duck blood soup), served sour or sweet.
