During the tour, taking photos and filming is allowed.

Only a small carry-on luggage (with maximum dimensions of 20x20x35 cm) is allowed during the tour of the Mine. You may leave any larger luggage at our automated luggage lockers; however, please keep in mind that the number of lockers and their size are limited, which means that the availability of a suitable luggage locker cannot be guaranteed. Luggage storage is available free of charge during touring hours. When going for a tour of the mine, try your best to avoid taking large luggage and baby strollers with you, as the mine lacks the appropriate storage facilities to keep them for you.

For detailed information on the operation of the luggage storage, please refer to the Terms and Conditions.

Before starting the tour, you can use the toilets, which are located right next to the Daniłowicz Shaft. Toilets are also available underground in two locations on the tour.

A tour of the Pilgrims’ Trail may end with a Mass, provided that there is a priest in the group who agrees to celebrate the service.
If the group wants to take advantage of this opportunity, please let us know when booking the tour.

The offer is not adapted to the needs of people with disabilities.

His Eminence Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz blessed the Pilgrims’ Route at the beginning of 2010. The route is a wonderful testimony to the pious devotion of the generations of Wieliczka miners working here. Pilgrims can admire the magnificent sculptures in St Anthony’s Chapel. Their blurred features are the result of the forces of nature and the inexorable passage of time. The pilgrimage leads through the Wooden Golgotha of Wieliczka miners, which impresses with its artistry and elegance of workmanship.
The culmination of the journey is a tour of the miraculous St Kinga’s Chapel, where visitors can find magnificent altars, a carved pulpit, a copy of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper and a salt statue of John Paul II.

The Mine is a place where you can quiet down for a while and cut yourself off from the world, because telecommunication signals will not reach you here.
However, we have prepared a place for our guests where they can use free WiFi, as well as make calls.

Detailed terms and conditions of touring the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine can be found here.

Open flames, electric torches, smoking cigarettes (including e-cigarettes) are prohibited.
