Thorn was the capital of a tiny kingdom for some 800 years. This was where the 'stiftsdames' (canonesses) ruled and lived, led by a princess- abbes.
Thorn had its own mint and its own justice system until the arival of the French in 1794.
The historic centre of Thorn with its white houses is now a preservation site.
Together with the VVV tour guide you will look for traces of Thorn's striking past. And why are all the houses white? That too will become clear during this tour.
