The Town Hall Tower, Krakow, UNESCO Distance: 1.48 km
The tower is the only remnant of the building of Krakow Town Hall, which reached halfway into the Main Square. From the Middle Ages to the 19th century, the Town Hall was the headquarters of the municipal authorities. It was built around 1300 as a 2-storey stone construction, with a tower that served both defensive purposes and as a symbol of power and elegance.
The most important of the halls in the tower was the so-called Izba Panska (literally 'the Lords’ chamber'). It was, at the same time, the council assembly chamber and the courtroom. Its rich furnishings was to be proof of the solemnity and dignity of the Krakow authorities. To keep the proper balance and to keep everyone forewarned, the cellars of the Town Hall housed a prison with its own torture chamber.
Built from limestone and brick, the preserved tower used to be one of the most opulent towers in medieval Poland. During the renovation and reconstruction works carried out in the 1960s, its cellars were developed into a café that followed in the footsteps of the establishment that earned great renown in the Middle Ages as it served the best beer in Poland (from Swidnica). Since 1987, the cellars have also housed a stage of the Ludowy Theatre.

The Cloth Hall (Sukiennice), Krakow, UNESCO Distance: 1.49 km
In the second half of the 14th century, the city mason, Marcin Lindintolde, built a solid hall – roofed and propped with buttresses – in the centre of the Main Square. Designed for trading cloth, it received a privilege from King Casimir the Great, which forced merchants arriving in the city to sell their own goods only in the building. Inside, the hall was filled with stalls. This Gothic building burned in the Great Fire of the City in 1555.
The reconstruction, completed in 1559, gave the Cloth Hall a Renaissance architectural form, making it one of the most famous examples of the style in Krakow.
Nowadays, The Cloth Hall holds elegant shops and cafés. A technical curio of the time was the gas lighting, that has remained operational up until today. A gallery of Polish painting from the National Museum was opened on the upper floor in 1883. The Art Nouveau interior of the Jan Noworolski café, with murals by Jozef Mehoffer and Henryk Uziemblo, is worth a look.

It also provides two new direct exits/entrances to the station complex, one from the lower level of Galeria Krakowska and another from the Regional Bus Station located to the east of the railway station. The current platform underpass will also be refurbished. As part of this large investment, all platforms and tracks have been replaced.
Barbican, Krakow, UNESCO Distance: 1.52 km
The pearl within Krakow's system of fortifications, the Gothic Barbican, affectionately known as “Rondel” ('The Saucepan'), was built to answer the Turkish threat that increased towards the end of the 15th century. Its construction in 1498-1499 was ordered by King John Albert (Jan Olbracht), who feared retribution after the failure of his Wallachian campaign.
The project to demolish the city walls, carried out in 1817, was also originally intended to include the Barbican. This was, however, strongly opposed by Senator Feliks Radwański. It was thanks to his determination and persistence that a fragment of the neighbouring fortifications, including St Florian’s Gate and three towers, was saved.
Unfortunately, the so-called “neck” was taken down during the development of the Planty garden ring around 1825.
Krakow’s 'Rondel' is one of three Gothic barbicans that have survived to this day. The other two are in Carcassonne (France), and Görlitz (Germany). Krakow's is beyond any doubt the largest of the three and the one best preserved.
The Barbican is a UNESCO world heritage site.

The Wawel Royal Castle, located on the Vistula river in Krakow, is one of the most important royal residences, as well as a symbol and a monument of Polish history and culture.
Some time ago, knight tournaments and royal ceremonies were organised in its beautiful courtyard, surrounded by galleries, arcades and columns. In chambers and apartments, one could admire unique tapestries, paintings, murals, furniture and ornaments. Valuables that were owned by kings are stored in the royal treasury, while in the armoury, one can find the biggest collection of arms in the country.
The Wawel Cathedral with Sigismund’s Chapel and the famous Sigismund’s Bell are also part of the castle complex. The Cathedral was a place where rulers were crowned, while in the gloomy tombs, kings, national heroes and great Polish people were buried – Zygmunt Stary, Zygmunt August, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Jozef Pilsudski, Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Slowacki, among others. After the catastrophe in Smolensk, in April 2010, the presidential couple – Lech Kaczynski and his spouse, Maria – were buried here.

Basilica of St Michael the Archangel and St Stanislaus, Krakow, UNESCO Distance: 2.71 km
The Church of St Michael the Archangel and St Stanislaus Bishop and Martyr and the Pauline Fathers Monastery is a small outcrop in Krakow where the Bishop of Krakow, Saint Stanislaus of Szczepanow, was slain by order of the Polish king Boleslaw II the Bold in 1079. This action resulted in the king's exile and the eventual canonization of the slain bishop.
Originally, a Romanesque church was built there. King Casimir III raised a new Gothic church in its place and since 1472 this shrine has been in the possession of a monastic community of Pauline Fathers.
Between 1733-1751 the church received a baroque decor. It is one of the most famous Polish sanctuaries. The crypt underneath the church serves as a 'National Pantheon', a burial place for some of the most distinguished Poles, particularly those who lived in Krakow.

Aushwitz-Birkenau (German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp) Memorial and State Museum, Oświęcim, UNESCO Distance: 51.55 km
Auschwitz is known all over the world as a symbol of terror, genocide and the Holocaust. It was established in 1940 by the Germans in the suburbs of Oswiecim, a Polish town annexed to the Third Reich by the Nazis.
Its name was changed to Auschwitz, which also became the name of the Concentration Camp. The camp was established because of the mass arrests of Poles and, as a result, the number of prisoners was way beyond the capacity of existing "local" prisons.
Initially, Auschwitz was set to be another concentration camp in a series the Nazis had been building since the early 1930s. It functioned in this role throughout its existence, even when, beginning in 1942, it also became the largest of the death camps.

Church of St. Michael the Archangel, Debno Podhalanskie, UNESCO Distance: 70.4 km
The Parish Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Debno Podhalanskie was built in 1490, with a spire added in 1601.

Dunajec River Gorge run-off, Sromowce Wyzne, UNESCO Distance: 80.22 km
The Dunajec River Gorge runs through the Pieniny Mountains in the south of Poland and the north of Slovakia (as Dunajec is the border river between the two countries in the area). The gorge is characterized by some of the most interesting geological and geomorphological structures and area-specific natural ecosystems with little anthropogenic influence. It is featured on UNESCO's Tentative List of World Heritage Sites in Poland.
Dunajec Gorge is also one of the best-known tourist attractions in the Pieniny Mountains. Wooden canoe trips have been organized daily by Goral highlanders since the early 19th century when their customers consisted mostly of guests of nearby Niedzica and Czorsztyn castles. The trip begins in the village of Sromowce Katy, and ends in the resort town of Szczawnica, 18 km downstream. It takes about 2-3 hours. The second leg of the tour is only 5 km long. It begins in Szczawnica and ends in the town of Kroscienko nad Dunajcem. The Gorge makes 7 loops in its length. The surrounding rocks reach 300 m in height almost all the way through.
The Gorge is part of a valley located within the Pieniny National Park. The landscape distinguishes it from surrounding mountains due to the interaction of natural factors such as geological ground, relief, water, soil, climate, flora and fauna and their evolutionary relationships. All these elements contribute to the complexity of the natural beauty of the whole area.
