City Break Krakow

Krakow was once the first city of Poland and remains in many ways its cultural and spiritual capital.

Listed by Unesco in 1978 as one of the world's twelve most significant historical sites, picturesque Krakow was once the seat of Poland's kings, and if you visit for a city break, it is not hard to see why.

Escaping undamaged from the Second World War, Krakow is quite unlike many other Polish cities and features an abundance of architectural gems, including the spectacular Wawel Royal Castle and Cathedral, filled with priceless art and furniture.

Packed with character and history, there are plenty of things to do during a city break and popular attractions include a visit to the labyrinthine Wieliezka Salt Mine with its underground lakes and chapels carved into rocks, a trip to the medieval Cloth Hall or a visit to the site of the notorious Auschwitz Concentration Camp.

Though retaining its atmosphere of rich history and traditionalism, Krakow is a modern and cosmopolitan city with plenty of great bars, restaurants, cafes and shopping options available.

Hotels and other accommodation is available to suit every price category and we have selected some of the best and most centrally-located of these for your city break experience. Direct flights are available from the UK to Krakow with operators including national carrier LOT Polish Airlines.
