Poznań, in German Posen, is the capital of the Polish Greater Poland Voivodeship and the fifth largest Polish city with around 540,000 inhabitants. Poznan was also the capital of the Poznan Province.
In 1983 and 1997 Pope John Paul II visited the city. In 1998, as part of the Weimar Triangle, Chancellor Helmut Kohl met with the Presidents of France and Poland, Jacques Chirac and Aleksander Kwaśniewski, in Poznan.
Poznań, once the capital of Poland, is still the capital of the Wielkopolskie province today, which by translation into German would mean Greater Poland.
Poznan has long been one of the most important Central and Eastern European business locations. It is one of the most important locations for industry, services and trade in Poland, also beyond the national borders.
After a successful hygiene concept with regard to the corona pandemic by the trade fair management of the Caravan Salon Düsseldorf, the next stop this year for reduced trade fair participation was the Caravan trade fair in Poznan as an exhibition location.
