Designed by Richard Plüddemann, it was built between 1906-08 as the Breslauer Markthalle Nr 1, when the city was part of German Empire. The Hall was renowned for its then-innovative application of reinforced concrete trusses, which was unique in Europe at the time. The complex is situated by Piaskowa Street (Sandstraße), at the junction of Plac Nankiera (Ritterplatz) and Św. Ducha Street (Heiligegeiststraße) close to Main Market Square and the historic Old Town. It was erected at the same time as another smaller hall with the same interior structure at Kolejowa Street. Both buildings were created in order to organize street trading in the city center. Once completed, all street markets were moved into the newly opened halls. The building was not severely damaged during World War II and continued to be used as originally intended shortly after, whereas the Kolejowa Hall was destroyed and its ruins demolished in 1973. The Wrocław Market Hall was refurbished between 1980-83, and again in the years 2018-2019; it remains one of the biggest produce markets in the city.

Romanesque House in Wrocław (Polish: Domek Romański), or House of the Ladies of Trzebnica in Wrocław (Polish: Dom Panien Trzebnickich we Wrocławiu), is a Romanesque villa at Plac Biskupa Nankiera (Bishop Nankier's Square) in Wrocław. More precisely, it is an early-Gothic building with Romanesque elements that dates back to the beginning of the 13th century (mentioned in 1208), partly reconstructed after World War II. It was the centre for the Cistercians of Trzebnica, which is why it was called the House of the Ladies of Trzebnica. Nearby, along the Kotlarska Street, were the Nowe Jatki, a medieval shopping center belonging to the monastery. The building was erected on a trapezoidal plan made of brick laid in a Wendish thread (two-wheeled, also called Slavonic). The Romanesque elements of this building, including the arches in the central part, are mixed with Gothic details of the windows and the arches of the vaults. On each of the two floors of the building there were originally three rooms. The building was repeatedly rebuilt, and remained the property of the monastery until the dissolution of the monasteries in 1810.During WWII the site around Bishop Nankier's Square was damaged. During the renovation in 1959, historic fragments of the oldest architectural foundation of the building located under the street level were discovered. From 1966 to 1969, the site was partially reconstructed according to the project of Henryk Dziurla. Over eight centuries, the level of neighbouring streets has risen to the height of the upper storey of the building, which is why the entrance today is subterranean. In the southern part of the lower storey there are fragments of the old barrel vaults, and on the upper floor, cross vaults. During the reconstruction the ceiling was partially removed, joining the upper and lower storeys, and the whole building was covered with a contemporary reinforced concrete roof. The above-ground part was glazed from the outside. The place was then adapted for the needs of the art gallery under the patronage of the Center for Cultural Arts in Wrocław (OKiS). Later, the gallery was transformed into Foto-Medium-Art Gallery, and become one of the most important Neo-avantgarde centres in Poland. Then it changed its name to the Lower Silesia Centre of Photography, "Romanesque House". From January 2017 it is called the Foto-Gen Gallery. In April 2017, a bronze plaque commemorating the Cistercian foundation "House of the Ladies of Trzebnica" was placed in the facade of the building and the name Dom Panien Trzebnickich (House of the Ladies of Trzebnica) came back into official use .Foto-Gen Gallery specializes in showing photography and new media. There are regular exhibitions for home and international artists, presentations as well as lectures organized there. Media reportages from these events can be seen on Centre for Cultural Arts in Wrocław (OKiS) video channel, local and nationwide media.

Słodowa Island (Polish pronunciation: [ˈswɔdɔva], lit. 'Malt Island') is a small islet on the Oder River within the Wrocław Old Town.Słodowa Island used to be called Vorderbleiche (pol. Bielarska Przednia) until 1945. Originally the name came from bleaching linen for the Order of Saint Clare. The island was owned by the Order of Saint Claire from the Middle Ages until the beginning of the 18th century, when it became the property of the city. In the 18th century Słodowa Island was connected to Młyńska and Bielarska Islands with the iron bridge. In the second half of the 19th century, people began to build dwelling houses on it with sewerage systems, phones and electricity. In 1945 the German army installed field artillery there, which made it a target for frequent bombardment during World War II. During the siege of Wrocław at the end of World War II, almost all the buildings of the island were destroyed. There were only some of the buildings left, including the thirteenth-century St. Clare's Mills. St. Clare's Mills were blown up by sappers in 1975 on the order of Wrocław mayor, Marian Czubiński. The decision was met with widespread criticism and protests by the people of culture, architects, and urban planners. For nearly a quarter century after the destruction of mills, the area remained almost completely undeveloped, with only one house left on the island. 'Wyspa Słodowa' is also the name of the street connecting Słodowa Island with Młyńska Island, and further with St. Jadwiga street on Piasek Island. This is why Tumski Hotel uses address: Wyspa Słodowa 10, despite the fact that it is actually located on the Młyńska Island. Słodowa Island and neighbouring Piasek Island host many cultural events and concerts, especially during the summer season. In has frequently served as a venue for events associated with the Students' Holidays in May.

On 5 July 2018, Wyspa Słodowa was designated as one of five locations in Wrocław where alcohol consumption is allowed in public. It is the only such place in the city centre.
