Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Cosmopolis Fountain is an attraction situated at the edge of the Old Town in Toruń. The fountain was completed in June 2008 and during the daytime it is quite a sight and attracts a lot of visitors. In the evenings there are light shows and water effects accompanied by music which unfortunately we did not get to see on our fleeting visit. It is a worthwhile visit whilst in Toruń and next time we will make sure we see it in full splendour during an evening light show.

The fountain refers to the famous work of Nicolaus Copernicus ‘On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres’. The granite board of the fountain reads a Latin sentence and a diagram of the heliocentric system and the circles symbolising the orbits contain 100 nozzles from which water springs up. The central nozzle symbolising "the Sun" shoots water 5 meters in the air.
In the summer, in the evening hours the visitors can admire spectacular fountain performances of water, light and sound and it os the best time to see it.

Toruń is a wonderful place to take photographs day or night. A particularly interesting night subject is the Cosmopolis Fountain located a very short walk from the town square. The fountain, referencing the work of Nicolaus Copernicus, is lit with multiple lights and the flow of water is in harmony with a musical score. This attraction is free, and can be quite entertaining when children decide they want to play in it. This fountain is beautiful and fascinating.

After a long day of talking around touring the city, this fountain show was a great way to finish up the day. The show begins around 9pm during the summer, every night I believe (we were there on a Wednesday). The music and the fountains were coordinated seamlessly and were very moving at times. Even though it was slightly raining we stayed for a while, mesmerized by the lights. It's right by the main square so it's easily accessible. I'd highly recommend catching it if you're able.

This is a nice, just nice thing to see in Torun if you don't have anything better to do. It's a little fountain that "plays" with the accompanying music. It's not big. It's not amazing. It's not the Fountains at Bellagio in Las Vegas. It's nice to see the little Polish kids (and their parents) play in the fountains and have a fun time. Reminds me of America in the 1950s (or at least how it is presented on TV). Even though it's very dark at night you'll feel perfectly safe.

Great for kids, and for anyone who wants to get away from the noise and relax, just outside the city walls.

I found this on a very hot and humid afternoon. Filled with children running and jumping in the water while the vertical jets of water dance. Good seating all around to enjoy the show. Came back at night and the light effects are worth the walk. I nice break from the crowds.

The first time I saw this fountain, it was just bubbling along with no lights and no sound and enjoyable enough, but when I saw it again later in the evening with lights and sound, I was really impressed at how well done it was – it's not as kitschy as you might expect a music-synchronized fountain to be, and people gather around it in a nice communal way.

Czy mogę wiedzieć, kiedy odbywają się pokazy w 2019? Zależy mi na końcu czerwca, a mają kompletnie nieinformacyjną, przedawnioną stronę, bo wszystko pokazuje na 2018.
Written 13 June 2019
Seanse odbywają się w sezonie turystycznym, od kwietnia do końca października, od około 20.00 do 23.00, przynajmniej tak mniej więcej było dotychczas:)
Pozdrawiam

Plan seansów:
Plan seansów Fontanny Cosmopolis zmienia się w zależności od pór roku i związanej z tym zmiennej godziny zapadania zmierzchu - widowiskowy efekt pokazów można bowiem uzyskać po zapadnięciu ciemności. W sezonie letnim (od maja) pokazy rozpoczynają się od godziny 21.00 i kończą o 24.00. W każdej godzinie można oglądać widowisko świetlne z kilkoma utworami muzycznymi. Według kolejności są to:
Muzyka filmowa Michała Lorenca
Muzyka z filmu Love Story
Muzyka z filmu Gladiator
Utwór Cosmopolis
Pomiędzy poszczególnymi seansami są kilkuminutowe przerwy.
