The Rynek, Cathedral Island and the dwarfs cost nothing. The halls, the panorama and the museums are what you pay for — and that's where the day gets pricier or stays low.

A day in Wrocław is cheap if you pick the free things: the Rynek, Cathedral Island, the dwarfs and a walk along the Odra cost nothing. A hostel bed is €10.81–18.35, a set lunch €5.48–6.39, and the priciest ticket in this plan is the Racławice Panorama, €11.52. The table below adds it all up into three daily budgets.

The Racławice Panorama€11.52
Hydropolis€10.27–10.73

The Rynek, Cathedral Island, the dwarfs, the student quarter and Wzgórze Partyzantów are free.

The bill goes up on tickets. The Racławice Panorama is the priciest in this plan, but the ticket also covers three other museums for three months, so it pays off once you enter more than one. Hydropolis has a separate entry and isn't part of that ticket. On a Monday Centennial Hall is shut, so that cost drops out of the day by itself.
