Highlights

Delve into Krakow's medieval past on this self guided audio tour, with tales of ancient kings and fire-breathing dragons, on this tour of the historic old town and castle. You’ll hear how Krakow was transformed into a royal city – and Poland’s capital until 1596 – after starting out as a humble merchant town. Our walk starts in the city’s medieval market square and ends just outside Wawel Castle, the first ever UNESCO World Heritage Site. (Krakow’s whole old town was the first city in Europe to be given UNESCO World Heritage status too.) Some of the highlights you can look forward to include: • The story of St. Mary's trumpeter • Krakow's legendary fire-breathing dragon • A walk around Wawel Castle and the Royal Palace which are open from 10am to 6pm • Stories about St. Mary's Basilica and the Wawel Cathedral • The Kraków Barbican, a medieval fortress • A short visit to the Bishop's Palace, the former home of Pope John II

About Krakau

Krakau, Polens frühere Königsstadt, hat eine wunderbar erhaltene mittelalterliche Altstadt, gekrönt von der Wawelburg über der Weichsel.

Der Hauptmarkt, einer der größten mittelalterlichen Plätze Europas, ist von Bürgerhäusern gesäumt und wird von den Tuchhallen mit ihren Arkaden beherrscht. Die Marienkirche erhebt sich an einer Ecke, ihr geschnitzter Holzaltar ein gotisches Meisterwerk, und von ihrem Turm erklingt Tag und Nacht ein Trompetensignal.

Top-ranked sights in Krakau: Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, Rynek Glowny (Main Market Square), Wieliczka Salt Mine (Kopalnia Soli).
