Want to see exactly what it looks like in Krakow right now?! These are some of the best live cams around Krakow so you can check the weather in Krakow, if Zakrzowek is warm enough to swim in yet- and how crowded it is, see if there are any markets set up on the main square, or at noon everyday you can watch the Krakow Trumpeter LIVE from his tower as the hejnał in St. Mary’s Basilica on the Main Square. Below you will find live cams for the Main Square, Jewish Quarter of Kazimierz, and more…
The Pools of Zakrzowek: Krakow’s Local Oasis
The live camera (above) show the pools of Zakrzowek, a lake just a short tram ride away from the city center that was once a limestone quarry but has now been converted into pools. There is both a wild side where you can go whenever you want and swim at your own risk- with both grassy and rocky areas for sitting. The more regulated area you see in this camera is the Poolside section of Zakrzowek.
The Krakow Main Square: The Town Tower Side
It’s on this side of the square where the larger markets are held in Krakow. So think the Krakow Easter Market and Krakow Christmas Market- probably the two most popular festivals of the year. But you’ll also find here concerts and sporting events, and on most days a vast space for people to walk around as they navigate through the city.
Krakow’s Jewish Quarter of Kazimierz: Szeroka Street
Szeroka Street is really more of a square in the Jewish Quarter in Kazimierz. And this camera puts you right in the middle of it. Look to see if the outdoor tables are set up if there is good weather; or if any bands are out giving concerts in this lively section of the neighborhood (albeit touristy).
Krakow Main Market Square Live Cam of St. Mary’s Basilica: Our Meeting Point
This camera shows you the side of the main square that features St. Mary’s Basilica. While festivals and things are usually on the other side, you can always check this camera to see how crowded the main market square is! Right in front of St. Mary’s Basilica is where we meet everyday for our Old Town Walking Tours. So look closely and you may just see our Orange Umbrella!
Wawel Castle Live Camera
This camera shows the Vistula River also known as the Wisła with the Wawel Castle in the background. Look to see what the weather in Krakow is like, and if the Wisła Boulevards are crowded with people picnicking or sunbathing.
The Old Synagogue in Krakow: Also our meeting point!
Right in front of the Old Synagogue is our meeting point for the Jewish Quarter Tours we offer everyday. Look a little closer and you may just see one of our guides with the famous Krakow Explorers Orange Umbrella! This camera shows you how busy the more touristy section of Kazimierz is. \
The Main Square of Podgorze
This is a beautiful square in the district of Podgorze, where more and more tourists are starting to go. Look here to see if the flowers are blooming, and what the weather is like in Krakow. You can’t see it from this angle, but this is the perfect place to visit if you want to see St. Joseph’s Church- one of the most beautiful exteriors in all of Krakow.
Grodzka Street at St. Peter and Paul’s and St. Andrew Churches
Ulica Grodzka can be one of the busiest streets in Krakow- check here to see how crowded Krakow is at the moment. This will really give you a clear look on whether its a busy day or not.
Another view of the Main Square: the Cloth Hall Side Entrance
Just another view of Krakow’s Main Square from a different angle, this time looking towards the side entrance to the Cloth Hall.
Live Camera of Nowa Huta: The District that was called “The Communist Utopia”
You may not have heard of Nowa Huta yet, but we think that will change in the future. There’s a lot of potential in this district. Interesting architecture, authentic milk bars, neon signs, and some great cultural institutions from museums to theaters. The future is bright for this district.
The Krakow Trumpeter Live! (Hejnał Mariacki) Everyday at Noon
While the trumpeter plays every hour on the hour, he deserves some privacy so this stream is only active at noon when the bugle call is played across the radio! Want to learn more about this legend? Go here!
