About Wawel Cathedral

The Wawel Cathedral is undoubtedly one of the finest and magnificent churches of Poland, and can probably be called Poland’s Westminster Abbey.

Originally constructed in the 11th century, the Wawel Cathedral underwent countless changes and additions, with the final masterpiece glowing roday.

Just similar to the exteriors are the interior, which have been widely praised by a number of artists and designers. It also houses the huge bell of Zygmunt, built in the 16th century. Climbing up this bell tower will enable you to get a glimpse of the spectacular mediaeval skyline of the city. It is also a national shrine and is a burial ground for some of the greatest and influential Polish kings, queens and nobles.
