Set off with your guide through the charming streets of the Old Town and enter one of the symbols of Krakow - St. Mary’s Church. Look towards the sky and discover the beautiful vault and the altar in front of you, carved by the great master Veit Stoss. Listen to urban legends while walking around the Main Square, which has been the central square of Krakow for 800 years! Whatever happened here only at this time! Goods from all over the world were sold in the trade rows, which made Krakow merchants rich, the city authorities strictly supervised order, the executioner tortured suspects in the dungeons of the town hall, and kings paraded through the square to get to their castle. The most interesting traces of ancient events can still be found on the Market Square, and even more so under the Market Square! You will go 4 meters underground to the archaeological Underground Museum to be on the same level as the cobbled roads of Krakow from the 12th-13th centuries and discover Krakow anew.
