The fortress of the Polish kings. The castle was built in the 14th century but some of the old stone buildings can be traced back to 970 AD.

The heart of Poland. The seat and burial place of Polish kings and great influential personalities such as Marshal Pilsudski. Accordingly, Wawel was also the seat of the Nazi Governor General (Hans Frank). All eras left their architectural testimonies here. Particularly worth seeing is the magnificent inner courtyard and the Hall of Heads with a multitude of individual heads looking down at the viewer from the high coffered ceiling. It is recommended not only to take a guided tour here, but also to enjoy the wonderful setting of the historical rooms at one of the wonderful concerts.
