Los puestos de flores de Plac Solny (la Plaza de la Sal), Wrocław, están abiertos 24 horas. No sé muy bien por qué, pues no me imagino quién puede querer comprar flores, por ejemplo, un martes a las cuatro de la mañana...
Aquí los vemos a la luz del anochecer. El color es el que había.
I was meeting my friends for a meal on our last day in Wrocław, as we arrived earlier we had a bit of time to go round for a walk. Very pleasant.
These buildings in Wroclaw were very cute and pretty. And somewhat different in their architecture from other buildings I saw in other Polish cities.

Krobielowice, Poland.
December 16, 1742 – September 12, 1819. Graf (Count), later promoted Fürst (Prince) von Wahlstatt, was a Prussian Generalfeldmarschall (field marshal) who led his army against Napoleon I at the Battle of the Nations at Leipzig in 1813 and at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815 with the Duke of Wellington. The honorary citizen of Berlin, Hamburg and Rostock bore the nickname "Marschall Vorwärts" ("Marshal Forwards!") because of his approach to warfare. There is a German idiom to this day, "ran wie Blücher" ("on it like Blücher"), meaning that someone is taking very direct and aggressive action, in war or otherwise.
Three ships of the German navy have been named in honour of Blücher. The first to be so named was a corvette built at Kiel's Norddeutsche Schiffbau AG (later renamed the Krupp-Germaniawerft) and launched 20 March 1877. Taken out of service after a boiler explosion in 1907, she ended her days as a coal freighter in Vigo, Spain.
On 11 April 1908, the Panzerkreuzer SMS Blücher was launched from the Imperial Shipyard in Kiel. This ship was sunk on 24 January 1915 in WWI at the Battle of Dogger Bank.
Von Blücher retired to his Silesian residence here at Krobielowice, Poland (Krieblowitz, a German town before 1945), where he died in 1819, aged 76.
In 1945 his grave was destroyed by the invading Soviet troops, his corpse exhumed, and his skull reportedly used as a football.
In today's Wroclaw the famous Plac Solny (the flower market) in Rynek was named Blücherplatz before 1945, to commemorate him, and there used to stand his bronze statue in the middle of the square.

The history of Wroclaw dates back more than a thousand years. At various times, it has been part of the Kingdom of Poland, the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Kingdom of Hungary, the Habsburg monarchy of Austria, the Kingdom of Prussia, and Germany. Wrocław became part of Poland again in 1945 as part of the result of extensive border changes and expulsions after WWII.
In 990 Mieszko I of Poland conquered Silesia and Wrocław. The town became a commercial center. In the 12th century Polish, Bohemian, Jewish, Walloon, and German communities existed here.
Wroclaw was devastated in 1241 during the first Mongol invasion of Poland. In the 13th century due to migration from Saxony and Bavaria, Wroclaw got germanised. The population adopted the German language and culture and the name changed to Breslau.
Between 1342 and 1344 two fires destroyed large parts of the city, which was a part of the Bohemian Kingdom at that time. Charles IV`s , successors Wenceslaus and Sigismund became involved in a long-lasting feud with the city and its magistrate, culminating in the revolt in 1418 when local craftsmen killed seven councilors.
After the city had defeated the Bohemian Hussites the city was besieged by a combined Polish-Czech force in 1474, however, a ceasefire was signed, according to which the city remained under Hungarian rule.
The Reformation reached Breslau already in 1518, and in 1523 the town council unanimously appointed a new pastor and thus introduced the Reformation in Breslau.
In 1526, the Habsburg monarchy of Austria inherited Bohemia, Silesia, and the city of Breslau. In 1609 German emperor Rudolf II granted the free exercise of church services to all Bohemian and Silesian Protestants. In the following Thirty Years' War, the city suffered badly. It was occupied by Saxon and Swedish troops and lost 18,000 of its 40,000 residents to the plague.
The Counter-Reformation had started with Rudolf II who encouraged Catholic orders to settle in Breslau. The dominance of the German population under the Habsburg rule in the city became more visible, while the Polish population diminished in numbers.
After Frederick the Great besieged the city for a year, it surrendered in 1741. In 1742, Queen Maria Theresa handed over Silesia to the Prussian king.

Wroclaw, Poland
This square was laid out as far back as the 1242 reconsitution of the city following the Mongol invasion.
Previous names: Polnischer Markt (Polish Market), Salzring (Salt Market), Blücherplatz or Salzplatz (Salt Square).
'The western frontage, which seems to be the oldest, is in fact a very free reconstruction of the state from around 1800, made in the years 1947–1958.' - wikipedia, autotranslated

An African trio at a corner of Plac Solny (Salt Market). Probably it was a reference to a nearby tobacco or cigar shop.
