Creating better cities together.
Wednesday September 23, 2026 4:15pm - 5:30pm CEST
Every city has more than one map. One is made of streets, buildings, landmarks, and official histories. Another is made of memories, encounters, emotions, and personal stories connected to specific places. One Hundred Thousand Wrocławs (100kWro) is an attempt to create this second map.


The project is an open, participatory archive built around an interactive map of Wrocław. Residents will be invited to attach their own stories to particular locations — from bridges and squares to bus stops, stairwells, shops, or ordinary street corners. Together, these individual narratives will create a constantly evolving portrait of the city as experienced by the people who live in it.


During the session, we will explore how storytelling can become a tool for placemaking, building belonging, and preserving collective memory. But rather than only talking about the idea, we will put it into practice. Participants will choose a place that matters to them, write a short personal story, edit it in pairs, and share selected stories with the group.
By creating this temporary collective map together, we will ask a simple question: Can knowing someone else’s story change the way we see a place?
