Lajkonik Tradition In Krakow
Lajkonik, a folklore symbol of Krakow, touches a woman with a mace for good luck as he walks in a parade during the Lajkonik March in the Old Town of Krakow, Poland on June 6, 2024. Centuries long tradition of Lajkonik, a bearded man on a wooden horse, representing a Tatar, who unsuccessfully invaded Krakow in XIII century, is one of the symbols of Krakow. The city has its Lajkonik Festival every year in June. (Photo by Dominika Zarzycka/NurPhoto)
