Majestic Historical Gem

Wawel Castle, perched atop a limestone hill in Kraków, Poland, is a historic marvel that spans centuries of architectural styles. Initially built in the 14th century, the castle served as the residence of Polish kings and queens. Its Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque elements reflect the evolving tastes of the ruling elite. The Wawel Cathedral, an integral part of the complex, houses royal tombs and Poland's coronation site. The castle's courtyards, towers, and the Dragon's Den, tied to local folklore, captivate visitors. Today, Wawel Castle stands as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a testament to Poland's rich cultural and historical tapestry. #freehotelstay #historicallandmarks #localguides
