Wieliczka Salt Mine

We are pleased to announce that the ending break is coming to an end – the Wieliczka Graduation Tower re-opens to visitors from Wednesday, 1 April 2026. Enjoy the beneficial properties of the brine and take this opportunity to go for a walk with your friends, parents, kids and loved ones!

The 7,500-square metre Wieliczka Graduation Tower is the largest facility of its kind in southern Poland. Located in the vicinity of the Wieliczka Salt Mine, it remains a popular destination for tourists due to the beneficial properties of its air and relaxing atmosphere. 

The brine spray in the tower is believed to be one of the best natural remedies for respiratory diseases and a sure-fire way to boost your immune system. 

The air in the Graduation Tower helps you cleanse the respiratory tract – if you are suffering from allergies, recurring rhinitis and laryngitis, bronchitis, sinusitis or acute respiratory infections, you should make sure to give it a try. We also recommend checking it out if you live in big cities and breathe in all the smog and pollution on a daily basis. 

The unique microclimate in the Wieliczka Graduation Tower also helps you relax and unwind, while charging your body battery.  The Graduation Tower offers a large observation deck and an octagonal observation tower, standing 22 metres tall – you can admire the panorama of Wieliczka and the surrounding area.

In April, the Graduation Tower is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
