city, and also an orchestra often played here. The bridge, with towers, underwent destruction over the centuries, but every time was rebuilt. Your task is to create a circle: dance and laugh like witches at the Sabbath;) Make the photo and open the next envelope;) Envelope 2 Jatki Wroclaw, occupying the area between the streets Odrzaoska and Kiełbaśnicza, mainly associated with numerous small art galleries as the Klub na Jatkach. However, the name of this place is quite far from art and entertainment, while closely associated with ... meat. In fact originally it was the place of slaughter of the animals and sale of their meat, while the word "jatka" most likely was related to the verb " jechad" (go), suggesting that the first market stalls were mobile. The history of this place dates back to the XIII century, perhaps that the reign of Prince Boleslav Rogatka. The nature of Jatki has changed already in the XIX century, when the meat has been replaced by pottery and other trade. In the 90s the monument to slaughter animals was placed here. After entering into Jatki we can see sculptures of duck, goat, pig and a cock. In this way the artists wanted to honor the slaughtered animals.

Do you remember the fairy tale about four musicians of Bremen? A donkey, a dog, a cat, and a cock, all past their prime years in life and usefulness on their respective farms, were soon to be discarded or mistreated by their masters. One by one they leave their homes and set out together. On the way to Bremen, they see a lighted cottage; they look inside and see four robbers enjoying their illgotten gains. Standing on each other's backs, they decide to perform for the men in hope of gaining food. Their 'music' has an unanticipated effect; the men run for their lives, not knowing what the strange sound is. The animals take possession of the house, eat a good meal, and settle in for the evening.
