Conservazione e storia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the 19th century, when Krakow\u2019s medieval defensive walls lost their military importance, many were demolished. However, thanks to the intervention of Feliks Radwa\u0144ski, a professor at the Jagiellonian University, the Florian Gate and the Barbican were preserved. He argued that the remaining fortifications would protect the city from harsh northern winds. Today, the Florian Gate, a section of the wall, and the Barbican are the only surviving parts of Krakow\u2019s medieval fortifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
