OF HARD-TO-HEAL
Kraków has had municipal rights since 1257 and is one of the oldest cities in
Poland. From the 14th to the 16th century it was the capital of Poland and the
place of coronation and burial of Polish kings (until as late as 1734). Today, Kraków
is a popular tourist destination, thanks to its famous historic monuments, such as
Wawel Castle, the St. Mary's Basilica, the Cloth Hall and the Main Market Square.

district. It houses the premises of the faculties of: Biology and Earth Sciences, Biochemistry, Biophysics and Biotechnology,
Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, Mathematics and Computer Science, and Management and Social
Communication, as well as the Natural Sciences Education Centre and the Małopolska Centre of Biotechnology.
The buildings of the Faculty of Chemistry and the Institute of Geological Sciences are currently under construction.

The offices of Rector and Deans are located in Collegium Novum, which was built in 1887 at the old university campus next
to the Planty park. The most valuable building of the historic academic quarter is Collegium Maius - the oldest university
professors' college (since 1400), which housed the Jagiellonian Library in the 19th and early 20th century and now houses
the JU Museum, whose collections include unique works of art, pieces of old scientific apparatus, and other historic items.
Next to the museum, there is the Professors' Garden, full of interactive instruments. In 2014, a time capsule was buried
there to celebrate the 650th anniversary of the university's foundation.
1777 - 1780
NEW IMAGING TECHNIQUES
Today, the Jagiellonian University consists of 15 faculties, including 3 medical faculties, which make up the Medical College.
The University provides education to about 50 thousand students, 65% of whom are women. Besides international
students from the European Union, there are more and more young people from Asia, the Americas, and Africa, as well as
East European countries studying at the oldest Polish higher education institution.

Since the late 16th century the University was generally known as the Kraków Academy, whereas during the reform
implemented by Hugo Kołłątaj in the years 1777 – 1786, it changed its name into the Principal School of the Realm. After
the third partition of Poland (1795), when Kraków was incorporated into Austria, the University changed its name yet again
– to the Principal School of Kraków, whereas the current name – the Jagiellonian University has been officially used since
1817.

of the University
in Kraków by King
Casimir the Great
The 15th and 16th centuries were considered the “golden age” of the University in Kraków, which was famous for
excellence in mathematics, astronomy and law, and a number of eminent scholars. The university attracted foreigners from
all over Europe, who accounted for 44 percent of the students. Its most distinguished graduates in that period included the
world famous astronomer Nicholaus Copernicus.

The Jagiellonian University was funded on 12 May 1364 by King Casimir the Great. It is the oldest university in Poland and
one of the oldest in Europe. The Studium Generale – as the University used to be called at that time – consisted of three
faculties: of law, medicine and liberal arts. In 1400 the University was re-established by King Vladislaus Jagiełło and another
faculty – of theology – was added to the restored institution.
