    Wawel Royal Castle

    October 27, 2016 in Poland ⋅ ⛅ 7 °C

    Tour of the castle and Church. The church was amazing, along with the tapestries (Indiana Jones moment #1) in the castle. It is amazing to think that all these things were stolen, most often during the war, yet found their way back home. The tapestries hanging in the ballroom this time depicted Noah and the flood. In this rendition Noah saved unicorns and dragons, too.
    No photos allowed inside 😞
    This castle was also the seat of local Nazi government during the war.
    The Wawel dragon is also outside the fortress.
    Well worth the walk.
