Miodowa Street

Miodowa Street is a 600 meter long street running through central Warsaw that links Krakowskie Przedmieście to Krasiński Square. Along its course stand historic buildings including churches, administrative structures, and other monuments.

The street received its name in the 16th century due to the gingerbread bakeries that operated there and gained fame across the city. This early reputation as a craft center shaped its role in urban life for centuries to come.

The street takes its name from the gingerbread bakeries that once operated here and attracted skilled craftspeople. Today visitors can still spot architectural details that reflect this artisanal heritage.

The street is easy to navigate on foot and accessible from various bus stops and tram lines throughout the area. Visitors should note that some sections feature historic cobblestones that require careful footing.

The Capuchins Church along this route houses the heart of King John III Sobieski preserved in a special chapel. This unusual relic makes the location a distinctive destination for history-minded visitors.
