    We found this in Maly Rynek which is located between St Mary’s Basilica and the Church of St Barbara and is a 16th century fountain.
    Good photo op with the Cathedral or the church in the background.

    Very interesting. Wouldn’t have known what it was if I haven’t known about it. Loved by the pigeons and in a lovely park around the old town.

    Located on Plac Mariacki and between St Mary's Basilica and Church Of St Barbara is this great statue/ water feature.
    Called Fontanna Z Zakiem ,its actually known as Monumento Of An Abecedarian ,sculptured in honour of famous German sculpture Viet Stross ( 1450- 1533 ) by sculpture Jan Budzilo ,its a great statue depicting the Abecedarian ( pupil learning the alphabet ) nonchalantly looking over his shoulder, its very photogenic as is the whole of Place Mariacki and well worth a few minutes of your time if you're in the Old Town of Krakow.

    Located in front of the magnificent Cloth Hall is The Square Fountain, a wonderful water feature that looks very cool indeed especially at night when illuminated, its not a must see attraction but if you're on Rynek Glowny it's most definitely well worth a few minutes of your time.

    Located in front of the Palace Of Fine Arts on Szczepanski Square is Szczepanski Square Fountain, a wonderful water feature that's always a joy to view.
    Szczepanski Square is a much underrated square in Krakow overshadowed by Maly Rynek and Rynek Glowny but its no less beautiful, lots of great buildings form this square and there's great pubs, bars, cafe's and restaurants around the square and this water feature is a landmark fountain although due to the extreme cold February weather the fountain wasn't in operation, in the warmer months it looks amazing, it's most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area and easy to locate on Szczepanski Square.

    Located on Maly Rynek is Maly Rynek Fountain.
    A cute little fountain/ water feature that's changed a bit since my last visit here ,the perspex panel has been removed but the marble blocks are still there ,its worth a few minutes of your time if you're in the area.

    Walking along Jagiellonska I decided to drop into the Maius University Faculty ( Jagiellonian University ) ,in the courtyard which is just so beautiful is this great looking fountain/ water feature, its obviously very old,not sure if it's in operation but it looks superb, its a fountain that adds to the joy of visiting this faculty building.

    Rynek Podgorski is a beautiful square in eclectic Podgorze district, the square is surrounded by great looking buildings and dominated by the wonderful St Joseph's Church, in my opinion one of the most beautiful churches in Krakow, there's a little water feature here called Rynek Podgorski Fountain that's very cool to view ,its a modern fountain ,not much age to it ,constructed from concrete, its got an unusual look to it ,very eye catching,its most definitely well worth a few minutes of your time if you're on Rynek Podgorski.

    Plac Swietej Marii Magdaleny Fountain is a lovely little fountain that's always cool to view.
    An unusual fountain with water rising up the polished ovel stone and cascading down creating a hypnotic swirling pool,its a fun fountain, it adds a bit of class to Plac Swietej Marii Magdaleny, a beautiful square located just off Ulica Grodzka, in my opinion one of the most beautiful streets in Krakow.

    Walking around Planty Park on a beautiful but cold February morning I came across this fountain ,although as is the norm in the winter months all fountains are not in operation in Krakow due to the extreme cold weather ,this fountain looked interesting, its part of a mini artificial lake with a cute little steel bridge that offers great views of this fountain ,lake and park area and of the lovely Bohdana Zaleskiego Statue,if you're walking around Planty Park it's a fountain and area well worth checking out.

    There are quite a few monuments in Krakow ,one that certainly caught my eye was Basztowa Monument.
    Not much information available about the monument ,what made it stand out though was the fact it's an obelisk ,it's set in pretty and well kept grounds and is most photogenic ,it's easy to locate along Basztowa and is well worth checking out if you're in the area.
