Descrizione
Explore the power struggles of medieval Krakow on a guided walking tour. Visit the Franciscan Basilica, Dominican Basilica, and Church of Sts. Peter and Paul.
Begin at the Franciscan Basilica, where Prince Bolesław the Chaste is buried. Hear about his close relatives, including his sister Salomea, venerated as a saint, and his wife Kinga, whose cult lives on to this day.
Next, visit the Dominican Church, built by Bishop Iwo Odrowąż for his brother Hyacinth, one of the first Dominican saints of worldwide renown. Finally, at the grand Church of Sts. Peter and Paul, learn how the eloquence of the Jesuits could bend even kings to their will.
Hear tales of exiles, excommunications, and backroom deals. Discover how the power of the altar and the crown could lie within the same family, as bishops were sometimes the king’s own brothers.
