Jana Matejki Square in Krakow
About
Plac Jana Matejki in Krakow is an enchanting spot nestled in Planty Park, perfect for family visits. Rated an impressive 4.6 on Google, this attraction honors the renowned artist Jana Matejko with a thoughtful statue designed by Jan Here. Unveiled on November 12, 2013, the statue depicts Matejko sitting in a chair, enshrined by a picture frame, deep in contemplation over his next masterpiece.
Ideal for a leisurely walk or enjoying live music, the area exudes a charming ambiance near the Old Town. Located next to the historic Barbican and directly opposite the Academy of Fine Arts, the square adds a rich layer of culture and history with landmarks such as the Monument to the Battle of Grunwald and St. Florian's Church.
