Krakow - Church of St Mary

The imposing Church of St Mary was built by the citizens of Krakow to rival the Royal Cathedral on Wawel Hill. The famous trumpet call - The Hejnal - is sounded hourly from the Hejnal Tower (on the left). The call is unfinished in memory of a medieval trumpeter shot while sounding the alarm. The Hejnal is broadcast by Polish radio daily at noon
