About Krakau

Krakau, de voormalige koninklijke hoofdstad van Polen, heeft een prachtig bewaarde middeleeuwse oude stad, bekroond door het Wawelkasteel boven de Wisła.

Het Grote Marktplein, een van de grootste middeleeuwse pleinen van Europa, wordt omzoomd door burgerhuizen en heeft in het midden de Lakenhal met zijn arcaden. De Mariakerk rijst op aan een hoek, met een gesneden houten altaarstuk dat een gotisch meesterwerk is, en vanuit de toren klinkt dag en nacht een trompetsignaal.

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