Krakow Stadium

Krakow, also written in English as Krakow and traditionally known as Cracow, is the second-largest and one of the oldest cities in Poland. Situated on the Vistula River in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, the city dates back to the 7th century. Krakow was the official capital of Poland until 1596 and has traditionally been one of the leading centres of Polish academic, economic, cultural and artistic life. Cited as one of Europe's most beautiful cities, its Old Town was declared the first UNESCO World Heritage Site in the world.

The city has grown from a Stone Age settlement to Poland's second-most-important city. It began as a hamlet on Wawel Hill and was reported as a busy trading centre of Central Europe in 965.

The city has a population of about 780,000, with approximately 8 million additional people living within a 100 km (62 mi) radius of its main square.

The Jewish population of the city was forced into a walled zone known as the Krakow Ghetto, from where they were sent to German extermination camps such as the nearby Auschwitz, and Nazi concentration camps like Plaszow. However, the city was spared from destruction and major bombing.

In 1978, Karol Wojtyla, archbishop of Krakow, was elevated to the papacy as Pope John Paul II—the first non-Italian pope in 455 years. Also that year, UNESCO approved Krakow's entire Old Town and historic centre as its first World Heritage Site alongside Quito. Krakow is classified as a global city with the ranking of "high sufficiency" by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network.
