Filling In Circles

Filling in the circles on here.

 

Euro Bison

Wola National Park is on an island near Szczeczin (Stettin) on the Polish-German border. They have a bison sanctuary there that you can visit. Euro bison are definitely smaller than the American version.










 

Order of March

A whole wall of mannequins dressed up in order of march for Napolean's army. Along with some re-enactors.

Looking Down Tunnels











Tunnels to look down and a bit of the tools used. Notice now they squared everything up and backfilled arched ceilings.

Street Scene Framed

The backstitching made all the difference. It's also been gifted to its new owner.

 

Explaining Bonaparte



Maps that explained Bonaparte and his conquests before Waterloo. Plus big portraits.




 

Into the City

Outside of the guard rooms, nothing was truly finished in the excavations. They go on for miles, and some connect with each other. But they're not finished off. It was hard and brutal work with very little in true mining equipment. The Poles have done a good job showing what was what, though, with researchers having been filmed and put into holograms to explain things - in English and Polish.
