A royal city on the Vistula, a capital rebuilt from ruins, Copernicus, Chopin and Marie Curie.
Poland is a large country between the Baltic Sea and the Tatra mountains, with a thousand years of history full of kings, uprisings and rebirths. It wrote Europe's first modern constitution, gave the world Copernicus, Chopin and Marie Curie, and began the peaceful end of communism in a Gdańsk shipyard. Visit the Wawel castle in Kraków, see Leonardo's Lady with an Ermine, and learn the story of Polish Jews at POLIN in Warsaw.
