==History== This structure was constructed by Polish Communists for an exhibition to celebrate regaining control over the "Regained Territories" after the Second World War with Stanisław Hempel being chosen as the designer. The Iglica is located very close to the Centennial Hall. Considering the hall's German origin, planners decided to build a spire next to it that could become a symbol of Polish Wrocław and Polish technology.
