The inauguration ceremony for Academia Europaea was held on 16th of December in Wrocław Town Hall. Rafał Dutkiewicz and Lars Walloe – the president of Academia Europaea, opened the new, European institution.
Due in part to the initiative of Wroclaw President Rafał Dutkiewicz, the city was able to fund a memorial plaque as a tribute to polish King Jan Kazimierz. In January, this plaque was placed in the church Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris.
