Despre activitate
You've heard of Wawel Castle. You've probably heard of its kings, its dragon, its centuries of royal glory. But what about the women who shaped it — and who shaped Poland itself?
On this 2-hour small-group walking tour, your storyteller guide will bring to life the queens, saints, artists, and Nobel Prize winners whose extraordinary stories have been hiding in plain sight. From the powerful medieval queen Jadwiga, who chose her kingdom over her heart, to the mysterious Lady with an Ermine — and from the royal intrigues of Bona Sforza to the brilliance of Marie Curie and Wisława Szymborska — this is the Poland nobody tells you about.
Our original Herstory storytelling concept weaves together medieval history, art history, and modern women's achievements into one unforgettable walk through Wawel Hill. Perfect for curious travelers, history lovers, and anyone who believes that half of history has been left untold.

Meet your guide at the ancient Zbruch Idol at the foot of Wawel Hill. As the castle looms above you, hear why this sacred hill was always a place where power — and women's courage — converged. Your guide sets the stage: what does it mean to look at a royal fortress through the eyes of its queens?

Walk through centuries of royal history as your guide reveals the women buried — and often forgotten — within these walls. Hear the heartbreaking story of Queen Jadwiga, who gave up everything for a kingdom. Discover how Bona Sforza, an Italian queen in Polish exile, quietly transformed Polish culture, cuisine, and politics. These weren't just consorts. They were rulers.

The Renaissance arcade above you once rang with the voices of queens and ladies-in-waiting. Now your guide leaps forward in time: from the castle walls to the laboratories of Marie Curie, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize — and still the only person to win it twice. And then to Wisława Szymborska, the quiet poet from Krakow who moved the world with a single stanza. Poland's women didn't just survive history. They made it.
