N
Nicholas – United States

This mound is off the beaten path and is a great way to learn about Polish history and Kosciuzsko’s contributions to both the histories of Poland and the United States. Staff was friendly and accommodating, would definitely recommend if you have a free morning in Krakow.

M
Mary – United States

The view is phenomenal. I learned a lot about Kosciusko. He was an important person in both Polish history and United States history.
