Adolph Anderssen - (1818-1879) Wroclaw's citizen and the best chess player of the second half of XIX th century the source of the picture: Wiki
Wrocław has commemorated his name by organising a chess tournament. Anderssen's grave in Wrocław - young chess players brought flowers

Additionally there were many attractions for the tourists: 1) one could play park chess in Wrocław's Rynek 2) one could try matching young champions in simultaneous games [ I am proud to announce that I managed to win but the chances were not equal as young champs had to play several games at the same time ] Tags: adolph anderssen, chess, mirek mirpo polyniak, open4net, wroclaw, wrocław
