Churches

Poland is a predominately Catholic country, and Kraków has a number of impressive churches with Gothic architecture. St. Mary's Basilica is one of the dominating features of the Old Town’s Main Market Square. On the outside, you’re drawn to its brick structure, with its asymmetrical twin towers. Inside the church there is an explosion of colour. From the breathtaking kaleidoscope of 14th-century stained-glass windows illuminating the altar, to the brightly coloured wall paintings and the deep-blue ceiling.

There are several other churches as, well with rich Gothic decoration. During our city tour, we also passed a totally different church with modernistic outside architecture.
