Admire all the most important places in Krakow from the Vistula River. See Krakow from a new perspective as you follow the flow of the queen of Polish rivers. - Kosciuszko’s Mound (Kopiec Kosciuszki) - The Kościuszko Mound in Krakow, one of the five mounds located in Krakow, was erected in honor of Tadeusz Kościuszko - a great patriot and leader of the national uprising.
- Monastery of the Norbertan Sisters - Fortified like a castle, this mighty monastery, founded in the 12th century, was destroyed and rebuilt several times. The most important Krakow traditions are also associated with it: here, on Monday after Easter, the annual Emmaus festival is celebrated. Hence, the Lajkonik procession - the most important symbol of Krakow - sets off every June.
- Wawel Royal Castle - The limestone hill rising above the Vistula River is the former center of power, the legendary (associated with the mythical founder of Krakow and his descendants) and historical: princely, episcopal and royal. Wawel is a complex of castle and sacred buildings - a symbol of the city, but most of all a museum presenting the most valuable monuments of Polish material culture. Take a good look and you will also notice the silhouette of the famous Wawel dragon breathing fire towards onlookers.
- Manggha Museum of Japanese Art and Technology - The original, modern form of the building housing the museum of art and technology is perfectly seen from the river level. The wavy line of its roof is to refer directly to the waves of the Vistula River.
- Church on the Rock (Kosciol na Skalce) - The baroque church of Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Stanislaus on Skałka rises above the boulevards, right on the Vistula River, on a small hill made of white Jurassic limestones. The basilica is also a national pantheon (many distinguished painters, musicians and poets are buried here) and a library with priceless documents, books and incunabula.
- Muzeum Krakowa, oddzial Fabryka Emalia Oskara Schindlera - During the tour and thanks to it:
- You will learn facts from the history of World War II through their impact on the everyday life of ordinary people in multicultural Krakow.
- You will see the real headquarters of Deutsche Emailwarenfabrik and hear about its owner, Oskar Schindler - an entrepreneur, known from the Oscar-winning Spielberg film, who saved many of his employees from inevitable death.
- The heroic deed of Oskar Schindler resembles his office, happily preserved in the factory administration building, which houses a symbolic “ark of survivors” made of thousands of pots, like those made by his employees during the war.
-
Thanks to the modern multimedia installation, you will walk along the cobbled streets of the city, enter the photographer’s atelier, look at the hairdresser, get on the tram, as well as see a typical apartment in the Jewish ghetto, and then find yourself with its inhabitants in the Płaszów camp…
