[2025 Krakow Attraction] Travel Guide for The Cloth Hall (Updated Apr)

MORNING: Explore Krakow’s old town A tip: Make sure to wear a good pair of walking shoes since you'll be exploring mostly on foot. In the square, there's the Sukiennice (Cloth Hall), an ornate shopping arcade with dozens of artisans selling handmade crafts that make great souvenirs to take home.Take your time to admire the 11th-century Church of St. Adalbert, the whitewashed chapel in the corner of the square and don't miss The Head, an enormous bronze sculpture that was a gift from Polish artist Igor Mitoraj. From Rynek Glowny, head south for about half a mile toward Wawel Castle. It sits on a limestone hill overlooking the Vistula River. Book a guide to explore the lavish royal apartments, grand staterooms, the treasury, and the armory and don't miss the surrounding gardens—the views of the city from the grounds are incredible. #travelpoland

#eurotrip Krakow Cloth dominates the main market square; you won’t miss it! The Cloth Hall dates to the Renaissance and is one of the city’s most recognisable icon. This place was once a major centre of international trade. During its golden age in the 15th century, one can find exotic imports from the east such as spices, silk, leather and more. You can find more about the medieval market and trading by visiting Rynek Underground (Rynek Podziemny), the underground square central museum of Kraków. This museum is situated below the market square of the city and is immense. It covers around 6000 square metres and you don’t even realised you are walking on top of this museum whilst exploring the central square. Please make sure that you book this in advance; we were lucky booking the final slot during our weekend stay. #eurotrip #passionpassport #gooutside #krakow #poland

It is one of Krakow's landmarks. The upper floor of the Cloth Hall is also the home of the 19th-century Polish Art Gallery (Galeria Sztuki Polskiej XIX wieku w Sukiennicach). The Textile Hall was once the center of international trade. Many businessmen come here to discuss business and trade. During its Golden Age in the 15th century, the Sumire was a source of imported goods from the East including spices, silks, leathers and waxes, while Kraków itself exported textiles, lead and salt from the Wieliczka Salt Mine. The products sold in the Textile Hall today include tourist souvenirs, amber and some handicrafts.

I came to Krakow, Poland. The tourist attractions are clustered around the Central Market Square, so you can do a half-day tour. Poland's streets are European and have a fairy-tale feel, which makes them more attractive than other European cities. Honestly, it's the most fun to walk around in Europe. The Central Market has many souvenir shops, restaurants, and stalls, and at night it's bustling with locals. A short walk away is St. Mary's Basilica, and then Wawel Castle, which is the highlight of Krakow sightseeing. 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/9KzNtRoTxPbLdz9K8 #0yentravelFebruary2025#Krakow #Poland
