This time your guide Frania Cafe will tell you about what she knows best. ,,Frania" is best known for doing laundry and coffee, but we'd love to tell you about our neighbors. If you have already visited Wawel and plan to go to Kazimierz, the shortest way is through Stradomska Street. What you can visit here ?

Sightseeing and museums

Bernardine Church

Church of St. Bernardyna in Krakow, nearby is the Frania Cafe

Built in 1659- 1680, it is worth a look here to see, first of all, a large-scale painting depicting the dance of death. In its center we see a dancing circle of women from different states, from the empress to a peasant woman, holding hands with skeletons....

Flipper Museum
A wonderful collection of flippers and video games dating back to the 1950s. More than 80 different games on 300m2. Ticket price includes unlimited play on all machines. A great place for an outing with a group of friends, with the other half or with kids, simply a place for everyone! A large selection of games, games from the 70-80s will provide you with great entertainment. . When buying I strongly recommend to pay extra and buy an open ticket because in an hour there is no chance to get around.
