THE CLOTH HALL

The Cloth Hall is one of the most emblematic monuments in Krakow which dates back to  XIII century.

It was erected in the 13th century and was an edifice of a gothic style only in 16th century it acquired a Renaissance costume with all the beautiful embellishments.

Unique attic  with decorations, mascaron ornaments  arcade loggias  and staircases are simply stunning.

The Cloth Hall owes its present -day form to 19th  century renovation. Neo – Gothic arcades  and  breaks on both longer sides are best remnants of it.

Every time I am passing by I need to stop and either simply look at this architectural treasure or take a photo. I have like tens of photos of Sukiennice  but  never  have enough 🙂
