EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS
From fixed phones:
999: Ambulance
998: Fire Brigade
997: Police
981: Road Assistance
986: Municipal Police
Using mobile phones: remember to dial the local code before the number, for example:
22 - 997 to call the police in Warsaw. Emergency calls from phone boxes are free of charge. If you do not know the local code, dial the general emergency number for mobile phones: 112.

Each student coming to study in Kraków within the ERASMUS programme must have completed his/her first year of study; he/she must have received a ERASMUS grant and a letter of agreement between the home and the host university.

Information about Kraków
K R A K Ó W
Whoever wishes to discover Poland’s soul must seek for it in Kraków...
Wilhelm Feldman
Kraków has played the most significant part among all major Polish cities. Once a powerful stronghold of the Wiślanie tribe, later the seat of local rulers, it served as the royal capital of the Piast and Jagiellon dynasties from mid-11th to late 16th century. It has also been a famed center of culture, art, and academia.
Kraków’s Old Town – the seat of our Academy - is now its most representative part. This relatively small area is nowadays a living museum of architecture, painting, sculpture, and research, with its sixty major historical monuments, three hundred historical buildings, housing some two million items of artwork. The Old Town is far from being an exception here: historical monuments abound in other neighbourhoods of Kraków, such as Stradom, Kazimierz, Podgórze, and in its environs, Ojców, Wieliczka, Niepołomice, Tyniec, or Wiśnicz.
No wonder, then, that Kraków is a veritable Mecca for tourists. Its special place in Polish history attracts tourists from both Poland and abroad.
The main tourist route leads along the so-called Royal Way, from the Barbican and the Floriańska Gate through the Rynek, the city’s main square – with its Gothic Basilica of St. Mary, its Renaissance Cloth Hall and its Romanesque St. Wojciech’s, and then through Grodzka street – with its Baroque St. Peter and Paul’s and the severe Romanesque lines of St. Andrew’s – to the Wawel, once a royal castle, now a great museum with abundant collections (including the famed Flanders Tapestries, the Royal Treasury, the Armoury, the collection of Turkish tents or of porcelain). The Wawel Hill also houses the city’s Cathedral with tombs of Polish kings and Poland’s greatest bell, the Zygmunt, founded by King Zygmunt the Old in 1520.
The Royal Castle is also the venue of the “Wawel Nights” concert series, featuring eminent artists. Kraków’s nearby Philharmonic Hall is the place to listen to visiting and local artists and ensembles.
Kraków also hosts numerous festivals; those of music including Days of Organ Music, the Ludwig van Beethoven Easter Festival, the Music in Old Kraków or Jazz Juniors; other festivals include Kraków Days, various festivals, festivals of individual streets or the Juwenalia, a great three-day festival of university students. More importantly, Kraków has been honoured as one of the European Cities of Culture 2000, itself a series of festivals authored by major artistic figures of the city: literary, Nobel Prize winners Wisława Szymborska and Czesław Miłosz, AA winner, filmamker Andrzej Wajda and, last but not least, composer Krzysztof Penderecki, Professor of our Academy of Music.
Almost every street in Old Kraków houses a museum (a total of 30). These include the national Museum and its collections of Czapski, Matejko, Szołayski, and Czartoryski; other museums include those of History, Archaeology, Ethnography, or Natural Science.
Kraków is a perfect place for the study of history of Poland, culture, or art. Its numerous universities include Poland’s first university, the Jagiellonian (founded 1364), the Kraków Polytechnics, the Academy of Economics, the Academy of Mining and Metallurgy, the Medical Academy (now part of the Jagiellonian University), the Pedagogical University, the Academy of Fine Arts, the Academy of Agriculture, the Academy of Physical Education, and the State Academy of Theatre.
Kraków’s numerous theatres include the Juliusz Słowacki, the Stary, the Bagatela, the Ludowy, the Groteska, the Krakowski Teatr Muzyczny, the STU, the Cricot 2. Cinemas abound.
Kraków also boasts of an ever expanding choice of restaurants, cafés and musical clubs, all maintaining their own and individual style, often located in the Old City’s numerous Gothic cellars. The most interesting eating and/or drinking places include Chłopskie Jadło, C.K.Dezerter, Corleone, Cyrano de Bergerac, Hawełka, Kurza stopka, El Paso, Ipanema, Paese, Chimera, Pod Aniołami, Cherubino, Cafe Camelot, Pod Chochołami, Black Gallery, Cafe Molier, Graffitti, Carmel Cafe, Dym, Młyn, Manekin, Papparazzi, Harris, U Louisa, Piec Art, Pod Baranami, Bambus, Troll and many, many more...
Despite its galaxy of historical monuments, Kraków is also a city of green. Nature can be found in the city’s numerous parks, including the Planty which encircles the Old Town, the Botanical Garden, the Strzelecki Park, the Wolski Forest, the Błonia, the parks of Bednarski, Jordan, or Krakowski.
Kraków is a place where history becomes legend and legend history. Most of its historical spots come together with a story: the Dragon’s Cave under the Wawel Hill, the legendary Prince Krak and his Princess Wanda, the tower’s of St’ Mary’s, the Bugle Call, the Kraków pigeons, etc.
We invite you to Kraków, Poland’s cultural capital, a city where you will find “all that human nature could ever require.”

ERASMUS STUDENT CHARTER
The status of 'Erasmus student' applies to students who satisfy the Erasmus eligibility criteria and who have been selected by their university1 to spend an Erasmus period abroad – either studying at an eligible partner university or carrying out a placement in an enterprise or other appropriate organisation. For study mobility, both universities must have an Erasmus University Charter awarded by the European Commission. For placement in enterprise the home university must hold an extended Erasmus University Charter (i.e. also covering rights and obligations relating to placements).
As an Erasmus student, you are entitled to expect:
-
Your home and host universities to have an inter-institutional agreement.
-
The sending and receiving institutions to sign with you and before you leave a Learning/Training Agreement setting out the details of your planned activities abroad, including the credits to be achieved.
-
Not to have to pay fees to your host university for tuition, registration, examinations, access to laboratory and library facilities during your Erasmus studies.
-
Full academic recognition from your home university for satisfactorily completed activities during the Erasmus mobility period, in accordance with the Learning/Training Agreement.
-
To be given a transcript of records at the end of your activities abroad, covering the studies/work carried out and signed by your host institution/enterprise. This will record your results with the credits and grades achieved. If the placement was not part of the normal curricula, the period will at least be recorded in the Diploma Supplement.
-
to be treated and served by your host university in the same way as their home students.
-
to have access to the Erasmus University Charter and European Policy Statement of your home and host universities.
-
Your student grant or loan from your home country to be maintained while you are abroad.
As an Erasmus student, you are expected to:
-
Respect the rules and obligations of your Erasmus grant agreement with your home university or your National Agency.
-
Ensure that any changes to the Learning/Training Agreement are agreed in writing with both the home and host institutions immediately they occur.
-
Spend the full study/placement period as agreed at the host university/enterprise, including undergoing the relevant examinations or other forms of assessment, and respect its rules and regulations. Write a report on your Erasmus study/placement period abroad when you return and provide feedback if requested by your home university, the European Commission or the National Agency.
If you have a problem:
-
Identify the problem clearly and check your rights and obligations.
-
Contact your departmental coordinator for Erasmus and use the formal appeals procedure of your home university if necessary.
If you remain dissatisfied, contact your National Agency.
