Sandomierska Tower - one of three towers on the Wawel Hill, located on its southwestern edge. Together with Baszta Lubranka (Senatorska), she creates a unique team called fire towers from the mid-15th century. It has eight floors, its rounded corners and large windows testify to its adaptation to the function of a cannon outpost. According to the portal: wawel.krakow.pl, the third floor room has elements providing a residential function, suggesting that it could have been both guard quarters and a prison for people with a higher social status. The tower's upper floor offers a view of Kraków and the surrounding area. Open daily from May 1 to September 30.
