Church of Saint Peter and Paul Krakow

Krakow Church聖ペテロ&パウロ教会クラクフ

The Church of Saints Peter and Paul is located on Grodzka Street in the Old Town district of Krakow.

It is a Polish Baroque church built between 1597 - 1619 by the Italian architect Giovanni Maria Bernardoni.

The dolomite facade of of the church is particularly striking.

Grodzka Street is a direct route from the center of Krakow's Old City to Wawel Castle.

The street can become very thick with pedestrian traffic - and is quite touristy - but there is a bike lane along this street.

The lane is not fenced off but locals and tourists alike respected the boundary of the lane, marked only by bike symbols painted onto the street, and rarely ventured into it even by mistake.
