Tamka Island

The pariah of the Wrocław islands, Tamka is a desolate, windswept patch of land dominated by two disintegrating structures: the former Medical Academy Faculty of Medicinal Chemistry and the former Wrocław University Faculty of Biotechnology. Far from its glory days as property of the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star, who built a mill here back in 1254, Tamka is now waiting for revitalisation after its buildings were abandoned due to poor technical condition and insufficient funds. An investor supposedly purchased the land in 2015, but so far the only development has been the opening of a small seasonal club, Wyspa Tamka.
