Market Square [Rynek]


Where | Downtown. Market Square or Main Square known in Polish as
Rynek Glowny (map)

Parking | We usually park at
Stary Kleparz (reasonable prices, easy to park & pay the assistant, free on Sundays. 10-minute walk from here to the Market Square with a stroller) or at Teatr Słowackiego (more expensive, but very close to Rynek, guarded). 

Stroller, wheelchair access | Yes. Traffic in Rynek and some surrounding streets is restricted so kids can run free if it's not too crowded. Some sidewalks are narrow, be prepared if you have a wider stroller. Old, large cobblestones cover most areas of Rynek - large wheels work better on these.      

What to do | Take a stroll, watch numerous performers or events taking place at Rynek, visit little markets and Sukiennice - the distinctive building in the center of Rynek with little shops that sell traditional Polish crafts.
Kids will love chasing | feeding pigeons, you can grab a snack at any of numerous coffee shops or restaurants, take a carriage ride, shop, visit kids-friendly museums and galleries, old buildings and churches.
