The Wawel Cathedral is considered the jewel in the crown of the Wawel Castle complex. It rises with its gold-topped chapels and bell-ringing belfry from the heart of the ancient fortress. Within are crypts where Polish luminaries have been laid to rest for centuries; keep a lookout for the graves of no fewer than 10 kings and the honored revolutionary general Tadeusz Kosciuszko.
