Krakow Part 4 ... Florian’s Gate



This is Florian’s Gate, it is the only one left of the cities original eight gates.  Through this gate is a circular building built to protect this gate.  It has 3-meter thick walls and seven turrets.  This building was once connected to Florian’s Gate by a narrow passage over the moat.  It is one of very few of its kinds still standing in Europe.
