Travel / Poland in photo riddles [3134]

According to a popular 20th century legend, during one of the Mongol invasion of Poland (usually the invasion of 1241), Tatar warriors approached the city. A guard on the Mariacki church tower sounded the alarm by playing the Heynal, and the city gates were closed before the Tatars could take the city by surprise. The bugler, however, was shot in the throat and did not complete the tune. According to the legend, that is why it now ends abruptly before completion.

my riddle was too difficult..but this interesting story..

this is complex called Giant (german 'Riese' in Sowie Mountains made by Hitler's construction specialists,at the cost of 150 million marks and an unknown number of human lives there are more than 200,000 cubic meters of tunnels,over an area of nearly 200 square kilometers. construction was started in 1943 and was planned to finish in 1948.

was made to hide arms industry for a fear of aliant's air attacs and probably to build ther V1 and V2 rockets. there was also one of Hitler's headquarters.

It is not my fault you don`t live in Krakow. If you did, you would have an access to excellent home-made sausage called wiejska or swojska, made from pork solely. But other types of sausage are also beef-free.

i didn't say it couldn't taste but for me wiejska, swojska or żywiecka always have some beef..i used to live in krakow but i never had beef-free kiełbasa
