The Main Square: A Journey Back in Time

Imagine standing in the middle of Europe’s largest medieval town site, the Main Square of Krakow. Dating back to 1257, this 40,000 square-meter area has witnessed centuries of history unfold. As you finally get to the Square, you’ll be captivated by:

  • Cloth Hall (Sukiennice): Once the bustling centre of trade in the 13th century, it now houses a museum showcasing Polish art and history. The market is marvellous, offering local crafts and souvenirs. You can spend hours browsing through unique items and learning about the local craftsmanship.
  • St. Mary’s Basilica: This gothic masterpiece is home to the largest gothic altarpiece in the world, carved by the famed artist Veit Stoss. Every hour, listen for the hauntingly beautiful trumpet call played from the tallest tower, a tradition dating back to the 14th century. The intricate details inside the basilica will leave you in awe of medieval artistry.
  • Town Hall Tower: The lone survivor of the original Town Hall, this tower offers panoramic views of Main Square and beyond, perfect for capturing the essence of Krakow. Climbing the tower provides a unique view and its historical significance.

Wawel Castle: Where Legends Come Alive

Leaving the central Square, your path leads you to the majestic Wawel Castle on a hill overlooking the Vistula River. This iconic symbol of Poland’s royal heritage boasts stories found behind every corner.

  • Wawel Cathedral: The coronation site and burial place of Polish kings, this cathedral is a history and art treasure site. As you explore, feel the weight of centuries and the atmosphere of the past. The cathedral’s chapels and crypts are filled with stunning artworks and tombs of notable figures.
  • Dragon’s Den: Dive into Polish folklore with a visit to the Dragon’s Den, the legendary lair of the Wawel Dragon. Don’t miss the fire-breathing dragon statue at the cave’s exit—kids and adults alike will love this highlight. This playful yet historic site adds a layer of historical intrigue to your sightseeing.

The Soul of Krakow: Kazimierz, The Jewish District

Head for Kazimierz, the former Jewish district of Kazimierz that once thrived as a cultural and spiritual centre. Today, it stands as a reminder of the resilience and rich heritage of Krakow’s Jewish community.

  • Synagogues and Cemeteries: Discover synagogues like the Old Synagogue, a museum today, and the Remuh Synagogue, which still serves the local Jewish community. The old Jewish cemetery, adjacent to the Remuh Synagogue, is the oldest of its kind in Poland, a place of reflection and remembrance. Walking through these sites offers a deep dive into the history and traditions of Jewish life in Krakow. 
  • Szeroka Street: Feel the echoes of the past as you walk down Szeroka Street, dotted with quaint shops, cafes, and restaurants that offer a taste of traditional Jewish cuisine and culture. This street is a living museum, preserving the essence of pre-war Jewish Krakow.
