Saint Mary’s Church in Krakow
Joined 2023
A visit to the 14th-century Saint Mary's Church is a journey through the city's history, from the Middle Ages to the baroque and 19th century. The church's main altar is a masterpiece of late Gothic wooden sculptures, and the rich were laid to rest in burial chapels of great splendor. It's an absolute must-see for anyone exploring Krakow.
