About

Brama Krakowska, an architectural gem in Lublin, stands proud since its opening in 1341. This Gothic marvel, accentuated by neoclassical and baroque elements, is the oldest tower and the historical gateway to the city's old town. Constructed under King Casimir the Great in the 14th century, it once formed a crucial part of the fortification system.

Today, the Cracow Gate not only symbolizes Lublin's rich past but also houses the museum of Lublin history, making it an intriguing stop on the Royal Route connecting Cracow and Vilnius. With an impressive average rating of 4.8 on Google, it promises an enriching experience for visitors of all ages. Set aside 1-2 hours to fully explore its vast interior and immerse yourself in its historical exhibitions.

After soaking up the history, a visit to a nearby jewelry shop is highly recommended, where you can find a delightful selection of modern designs and enjoy friendly service. Brama Krakowska is truly a must-visit, offering a blend of history, culture, and a touch of contemporary shopping.
