Abstract

Cracow, the old capital of Polish Kingdom, has always performed a particular role in the Polish history and culture. In the period of galician autonomy 1860-1914, Cracow became the spiritual capital of Poland for generations of Poles who lived in the partitioned country, which was ruled by the three foreign powers together. About this phenomenon decided not only the autonomy but also the old tradition, suburban folklore and the symbolism of this town. In the 19th century and before the First World War, Cracow was the most influential centre of the Polish national life.
