Hejnał is a Polish signal played in Krakow with a trumpet from the tower of St. Mary's Church. It is a traditional cultural heritage that is played every day on the hour. At this point you see the trumpeter at the 4th signal (each direction a signal) where he beckons to the people in the end.

St. Mary's Church - consecrated to Our Lady - on Kraków's Market Square is certainly one of the city's most important religious and cultural treasures. Their facade is sometimes even reproduced when the Kraukau cribs (Szopka) were built, replacing the stable that is common in many other countries.

You should definitely see the Marienaltar by Veit Stoss. It is also worth seeing when the two inner wings are closed by a nun and you can see the exterior painting.
