See Krakow via webcam

Old Town Square
This is a webcam showing the Old Town Square in Krakow.  You can see Sukiennice, the old cloth hall built in the 13th Century, and Kosciol Mariacki, the church of St Mary (built in the 14th Century) with the famous gold altar created by Wit Stwosz during the 15th Century.

By the way, the temperature is shown in Celsius in the lower right corner.  If you see it is 7 in Krakow that equates to 45 Farenheit.

Wawel
This is a webcam showing the Wisla River with Wawel Hill in the background.  The Hill contains the old fortification including a castle and cathedral. The Wawel Hill was first the site dedicated as the property of the capital of Poland in the 12th Century, and the first castle was constructed in the 13th Century.
