Light, movement and modern visual technologies will bring the stories of Wawel to life before your eyes — experience a royal tale!
During this unique show, we will take you on a fascinating journey through the most important themes of Wawel's history — from the royal tapestries of Sigismund Augustus, through the Armoury and the Crown Treasury, to the mysterious Underground Wawel and the golden age of the Jagiellonian dynasty. The monumental arcades of the Castle courtyard will become a canvas for modern multimedia projections, which will give these well-known spaces a whole new dimension. The legendary Wawel Dragon will also feature among the illuminations.
