It is best known for its renaissance Old Town and St. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Ostrów Tumski. There are many historic buildings and sights, mostly concentrated around the Old Town and other parts of the city centre,  such as: the Town Hall, Royal Castle, National Museum, Grand Theatre or the Imperial Castle. There are many important cultural events organized in Poznań among them: the Henryk Wieniawski Violin Competition or Malta Theatre Festival and regional customs such as St. John’s Fair, and a traditional Day of St. Martin.
