Kraków weather through the year

Kraków has a cool continental climate with a real winter: from December to February days stay around 3–6 °C and most nights are frosty. Summers are warm, with 24–25 °C from June to August, but July is also the wettest month, with rain on about 15 days, often as afternoon thunderstorms. October is one of the driest and most golden months of the year.

Picking the season

Late spring and early autumn are the best times to explore the Main Market Square, the Royal Road and Wawel Hill on foot, with 15–20 °C in May and September. December has its own charm, when the Christmas market fills the Market Square under the towers of St. Mary’s Basilica.

A rainy day underground

Kraków has an unusual answer to bad weather: the Wieliczka Salt Mine, a short trip from the centre, where chapels and lakes lie deep underground at a steady temperature of about 15 °C. In town, the chambers of Wawel Royal Castle, Wawel Cathedral and St. Mary’s Basilica, with its carved wooden altarpiece, are good indoor choices.
