The Wieliczka salt deposits form a historic landmark of physical culture unique in the world. The salt-works are situated on nine levels, the first of which is 64 metres below ground level, and the deepest 327 metres deep. 26 shafts have been drilled in the 10-kilometre-long deposit, while 180 others connect different levels underground.
The salt-works include more than 200 km of passageways with a total volume of 7,500 thousand cubic metres.
There are underground churches and chapels (once there were more than forty). From the 15th century to 1787, religious services were held on a daily basis. Wieliczka’s underground space has fairy-tale charms and unspeakable beauty which it owes to various crystalised formations, rarely seen elsewhere. This world-unique mining site was placed by the UNESCO on its World Cultural and Natural Heritage List.
Formal Dinner will take place in Warsaw Chamber, which was excavated in the 19th century by digging a total of 20,000 tons of salt. Due to its impressive size and the décor, the chamber is an ideal venue for various events. It is one of the few interiors of this magnitude in the Małopolska region.
