What people say

"St. Florian’s Gate is one of Kraków’s most iconic landmarks and the last remaining city gate from the medieval defensive walls. Built in the 14th century, this Gothic-style tower stands 34.5 meters tall and once protected the northern entrance to the city. Adorned with a Baroque-style metal helmet added in the 17th century, the gate leads to the famous Royal Route, connecting Kraków's Old Town with Wawel Castle. Beneath the gate, artists now display paintings for sale, adding a vibrant touch to the historical site. It’s a must-see for its historical significance and charm."

"One of my favourite places on the whole trip - alongside Florian Gate you will find countless pieces of incredible artwork decorating the walls, all created by the locals. Some really amazing creations here, as well as the beauty of the gate itself. "
