Product Info

Discover one of the most eagerly visited tourist sites in Poland with a visit to Wieliczka Salt Mine. This unique and beautiful site was naturally formed about 15 million years ago.

During almost nine centuries of salt exploitation, Wieliczka Salt Mine developed into an extensive underground city with a therapeutic climate and steady temperature of 14ºC. By the 15th century the mine was already visited as a cultural and geological phenomenon. Nowadays it is a complex labyrinth consisting of over 300 kilometers of galleries. The mine features about 3,000 chambers over 9 floors, the last of which is found 327 meters underground.

The 2 kilometer tourist route in Wieliczka includes 22 chambers connected by galleries. A licensed, English-speaking guide will show you the ancient shafts and mysterious salt lakes on-site. You will also discover a collection of mining machines and equipment, sculptures, bas-reliefs, and the impressive and opulent St. Kinga’s chapel. At the end of your tour, you will find a cozy, underground restaurant where you can take a rest and have lunch.

In 1978 Wieliczka Salt Mine became one of the first UNESCO World Heritage sites.
