Historically rich and architecturally beautiful, Krakow Old Town is well-known for being one of the most important cities in Poland. Its inclusion in the first-ever UNESCO World Heritage List in 1978 is not undeserved - this city is one of the few that emerged from World War II unscathed, making it one of the most intriguing medieval cities in Europe. Indeed, the Old Town is now a cultural hub. Not only has its famed architectural monuments like the Wawel Castle and Florianska Gate fascinated the young and old alike for decades, it is also home to Copernicus’ alma mater, Jagiellońian University, where many come to roam the incredible lecture halls and browse the amazing library. With its vibrant mix of history and beauty, Krakow is undoubtedly a must-see on a trip to Poland. Check out our list of top Airbnb vacation rentals in Poland’s oldest town!

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 05, 2024.
