About Krakow
Krakow is a city wrapped in legend where time flows differently. For centuries, Krakow was the capital of Poland, the seat of the kings, drawing great scholars and artists from the whole world. Today’s Krakow is a vibrant city, proud of its long and glorious history, rich heritage and architectural beauties like the renaissance royal Castle, the gothic basilica and the special mysterious atmosphere of the authentic old town. The cities nickname ‘treasury chamber of Poland’, reflects well the historical legacy.
Galleries full of exhibitions, cafes and trendy restaurants connect tradition with modernity. The city boasts the largest number of pubs and nightclubs in Poland.
Also the Malopolska region, of which Krakow is the Capital, is well worth a visit. It is the cradle of Polish culture. Eight sites of the UNESCO list of World Cultural and Natural Heritage are situated in Malopolska including not only the city center of Krakow but also Auschwitz and the salt mines of Wieliczka.
East Europe
The opening of this new route supports the airline’s growing operation between Brussels and East Europe. Apart from the launch of Krakow, Brussels Airlines reinforces its flight offer to East Europe by adding extra daily frequencies on the existing routes to Prague and Budapest and by optimising the flight schedule to and from Warsaw.
