Adam Mickiewicz Monument, Kraków

This is one of the most well-known bronze monuments in Poland and is located in the Main Market Square of the Old Town. Designed by sculptor Teodor Rygier, the monument features Mickiewicz standing on a pedestal, with four allegorical figures at his feet representing Homeland, Science, Courage, and Poetry. We were lucky to be in the square at a time of folk dancing and some celebrity wedding.

A very fine statue in the market square of Krakow, right by the church and the cloth hall. Very nice place and good to take some photos here.

Statue that gathers a large crowd around it. Wish people would respect it more than to have their kids climb it.

This statue was torn down by the Nazis in 1940, but was restored in 1955. Great monument.

Beautiful monument in the main square of Krakow. Stunning.

Adam Mickiewicz, my beloved poet. It is difficult to take a picture as there are so many people sitting on the actual monument.

The Adam Mickiewicz Monument in Krakow is a striking tribute to Poland's national poet. Located on Rynek Główny, the monument features a bronze statue of Mickiewicz, surrounded by allegorical figures representing Poetry, Motherland, Science, and Courage. Erected in 1898, it's not just a tribute to literature but also a symbol of national identity. The square around the monument is a common meeting point and a spot to appreciate both the artistic and historical significance of this iconic landmark.

A cool structure right in the heart of old town.

Beautiful Krakow old town square. Monument representing Poland history. Square is particularly busy even for a weekday. Similar to Warsaw old town square with colorful architecture.

This man is very famous even in my country, in Georgia, and we, our people, greatly appreciate the work and creativity of this person. And in Lietuva (Lithuania) and in Poland, he is just a very great and legendary person. Sculptures with his image stand in many places. This grand gorgeous sculpture is one of them.

Beautiful monument.

Beautiful Place located in the centre of Krakow. You can get there easily with Tram and you have so many things to do around it. I am sure you will visit if you go to Krakow

Lovely area with lots of restaurants around! Great place to visit!

Cool square and nice statue, good place to meet people.

A bit dark for my taste, but it's a fine addition for the square.

I wasn’t familiar with the primary poet of Poland, buried at Wawel Cathedral, but this statue serves as a key landmark (& great meeting spot) in the main market square of Kraków’s Old Town.

Nice place to visit at night in Christmas time.
