Sand Island (Wroclaw)

Poland / Dolnoslaskie / Wroclaw

Wyspa Piasek or 'Sand Island', probably the prettiest of the isles, boasts two churches: St. Anne's, and the magnificent Gothic Church of the Most Holy Virgin Mary. Once upon a time Sand Island was also home to a high density of attractive houses, however in World War II these were reduced to rubble. It's not all bad though, as today visitors will find instead a pleasant and open patch of grassland.
