Professor's Garden of the Jagiellonian University
Located between the buildings of the Jagiellonian University - the College of Mayus, the College of Medicum, the College of Minus and the College of Witkowski. The first mention of the park dates back to 1467. At that time the territory of the park was much larger. Vegetables for the professor's refectory were grown here. In 1475 a poultry farm was allocated. At the end of the 18th century, university professors were relocated from the Mayus College to other premises, and the park fell into disrepair.→

Jagiellonian University buildings
The oldest university in Poland was founded by King Casimir the Great in 1364. After years of decline, King Wladyslaw Jagiello resumed its activities in 1400, and therefore the university is called Jagiellonian. Currently, about 50.000 students study at 16 faculties. The main buildings of the university are called colleges and are located in different parts of Krakow. Some are under 500 years old, others - about 100. The oldest - the College of Mayus. In addition, there is the Minus Collegium, the Novum Collegium, the Juridicum Collegium, and the Medicum Collegium.→

Urban architecture lovers
Please note that the Jagiellonian University is located in several buildings. The most famous: - Collegium Novum, ul. Golebia 24. If you walk along the Planty ring, then you will come out just to this building. The building was built in the 19th century in neo-gothic style. In fact, this is the administrative building of the university, consisting of the rector's office, dean's offices and an impressive assembly hall (Aula). - Collegium Maius, entrance is from ul. Jagiellonska 15. This is the oldest building of the university.→
