Made in 14th-century and is a gothic tower in Krakow in Poland. This Florian Gate was one of eight towers that helped form the defences of the Krakow city. This gate is the prime defence of the northern part of the city while itself protected by the Barbican gateway. It is connected to three gothic towers (The Carpenters’, The Haberdashers’ and The Joiners) that are founded as well held by various factions of merchants.

The most important cultural heritage of Wroclaw city as well as one of the most visited tourist attractions of the city. Basically, it is a cylindrical painting that is 140m-long, designed to honor the 100th anniversary of the popular Kosciuszko Insurrection, when a Polish rebellion defeated the Russian army in the year 1794. This painting was painted by Jan Styka and Wojciech Kossak in 1894 in Lviv, and was exhibited at this place until the ended the World War II.
