Wielopolski Palace in Krakow, Renaissance palace in Old Town, Poland.

The Wielopolski Palace at All Saints Square is a Renaissance building featuring an ornate entrance portal decorated with sculptures symbolizing Work and Dignity. Its architecture combines elegant facades with spacious interior halls that now serve as offices for the mayor and city council.

The building was constructed between 1535 and 1560 by Hetman Jan Tarnowski and later passed through the hands of various noble families. The city of Krakow acquired it in 1864 for use as its municipal headquarters.

The palace serves as the seat of city government and contains several halls decorated with paintings of Polish rulers. Its rooms show how this building has functioned as a gathering place for important civic decisions over many generations.

The palace is located in Krakow's Old Town and is easy to reach on foot from the main square. Since it functions as a working government building, interior access may be limited, so checking ahead is advisable.

The council chamber features custom furniture designed by Filip Pokutyński and displays carved busts of Polish monarchs along its walls. These crafted details have been carefully preserved and offer a rare glimpse into late 19th-century artisan work.
