Krakow, Poland's historic capital and a vibrant centre of culture and intellectual life, is one of Europe's most fascinating cities. Known as the "City of Kings and Saints", Krakow impresses visitors with its rich history and living traditions. It is home to Poland's oldest university, a centre of scholarship and innovation for centuries.
The city is a treasury of art and architecture. One of its most valuable cultural districts is Kazimierz, the former Jewish quarter and one of the best-preserved historic Jewish districts in Europe. Krakow uniquely combines the atmosphere of the past with the energy of a modern European city.
