Muzeum Ksiazat Czartoryskich
You will see the beautiful building of the Czartoryski Museum, which houses Leonardo Da Vinci's painting "Lady with an Ermine". You will learn the history of the creation of this collection and the path it had to overcome to end up in Krakow. Nearby there is a very interesting market with an exhibition of paintings by contemporary artists. Let's take a look at the cafe "Michalika Pit", so beloved by 19th century artists who lived in Krakow, and the house where J. Matejko lived, which is now a museum.
On the main square of Krakow is the majestic St. Mary's Church.
