What to see in Krakow?

Krakow is the former capital of Poland and one of its most beautiful cities. What is important, Krakow did not suffer during the Second World War and today you can admire a multitude of monuments here. The most important of them are located in the Old Town, which was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as one of the first 12 sites worldwide! So what is worth seeing in Krakow? Where should you go during your trip to this city?

Museum lovers will be pleased to know that Krakow is one of the richest cities in Central Europe in terms of museum collections. It is home to almost one hundred museums, and the number is growing every year. Which ones are worth visiting during a short trip to Krakow? The largest and most important of its kind is the National Museum. Its main building is located on Aleje Trzech Wieszczów Street. Other branches are located in Bishop Erazm Ciołek’s palace (medieval art), the Cloth Hall (19th century Polish art), Feliks Jasieński’s Szołayski Tenement House (Young Poland art) and the Czartoryski Museum. In the latter, you can admire, among other things, Leonardo da Vinci’s Lady with an Ermine .

The most important monuments – places you can’t miss during your trip to Krakow!

One of the most recognisable landmarks of Krakow is the royal castle on the Wawel Hill. It is a huge two-storey building in Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles – the result of numerous renovations and alterations it has undergone over the years. Its characteristic Renaissance arcaded courtyard, imposing entrance gate and medieval towers are its hallmarks. Inside the castle is now a museum – you can visit more than 70 exhibition rooms, most of which are decorated in Renaissance and Baroque style. Highly impressive are the Eagle Room with its magnificent ceiling, the Crown Treasury or the richly decorated Vasa bedroom. When visiting Wawel, it is also worth going to St. Stanislaus’ and St. Wenceslas’ Cathedral. The Wawel Cathedral, where the remains of Polish kings, the most important artists and national heroes are interred, is also very impressive.

Many of the most important city monuments are located in the Old Town. Almost all tours of Krakow go there sooner or later. While in the city, it is necessary to visit the Main Market Square, where one of the symbols of Krakow rises: the famous Cloth Hall. Nearby, there is also the historic Roman Catholic St. Mary’s Church with its characteristic asymmetrical facade. Its interior is breath-taking – it is here that you can admire, among other things, the elaborate altar created in the 15th century by Wit Stwosz. When strolling through the Old Town, it is also worth going to the Florian Gate. This medieval building is a remnant of the former city walls. Besides the Old Town visit also the former Jewish quarter of Krakow – Kazimierz with its 7 preserved pre-war synagogues. It is truly fascinating and enchanting place.

When visiting Krakow, one should not forget about one of the most horrific and tragic places on the European continent – the former Nazi camp Auschwitz-Birkenau located only 60 kilometres from Krakow.

We had just one day in Wroclaw and a decision to join Walkative tours was the right one! These guys are amazing! Their stories are very informative, full of history, legends, funny jokes! They took us to all astonishing places of Wroclaw. Perfect for a day trip to this lovely city! Thank you, Lukasz and Matt for the brilliant tours!

Dawie’s tour was the best theatre in Paris as well as informative!!!! He is great – even in the rain. Do it.

My group really enjoyed the amount of history explained in the tour, it was a nice way to get a lot of information on several of the key sites in the center of Paris in a compact amount of time. Excellent for orientation and background. I would certainly do other tours in the future.

Best things to do and see in Krakow

Krakow is one of the most important cities in Poland . It is located in the south and is very close to its border with Slovakia and not far from the cities of Bratislava or Vienna. It is a city that enjoys a rich history and was deeply impacted by World War II. The Jewish neighborhood, (Kazimierz) and the old ghetto are the saddest and most affected areas or the city, where they are left as a reminder so that the atrocities of the past are never repeated. The Old Town (Stare Miasto) was one of the first places to be named a World Heritage site with its spectacular Market Square and St. Marie’s Basilica.   

There are many guided tours in Krakow that give you the chance to get to know the city in 2 to 3 hours while walking to visit some of the most emblematic monuments and places the city has to offer. In addition to this, there are themed tours that have a more specific route centered around a specific place or topic, to visit Wawel Cathedral and Castle located on the banks of Vistula River are, without a doubt, some of the most iconic parts of this Polish city. Another interesting place to visit is St. Florian’s Gate, the old entrance to the Medieval city, with 8 gated doors and a total of 35 spires spanning its length. If you cross over the wall, you will come across the Krakow Barbican, a fort that is surrounded by a moat which was used to protect the ancient city. Other points of interest you should check out are the Collegium Maius, the Planty Gardens, Oskar Schindler’s factory, Bohaterow Square with the chair monument, which is very close to the city where the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau and the Wieliczka salt mines were located. 

The best free walking tour in Krakow is the one where you get to see the sites with a local guide who will help you to understand the context of the city’s history and those little-known details about the place and its people. You can choose to book a guruwalk in the morning, afternoon, or evening. If you would like to learn more about other tours or walkers and their experiences, you can read their reviews to get a better idea of which tour would be best for you. Other cities that are also popular for travelers looking for a guruwalk in Poland are Warsaw, Poznan, Wroclaw or Prague.

A picturesque city, capable of relocating one to medieval times.

Amazing baroque buildings coexist in harmony with buildings of the nineteenth century. Its history is marked by Nazism, but the history that precedes it is much more impressive.

This city enriches us culturally in every corner. Countless monuments have been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

From the Cathedral, the Church of Santa Maria, the Wawel Castle or simply walking through its side streets adjacent to the Great Plaza, where the view is hypnotized with its original cobblestones, any place you visit in this beautiful city will remain long-lasting in your memory.
