In a cave, at the bottom of Wawel Hill there once lived a terrible fire-

belching dragon. He roamed around and did whatever he wanted to.

One day, a young handsome but poor

shoemaker’s apprentice named KRAK asked the

king if he could try to slay the dragon.

To king’s surprise, Krak had no armor, neither a

horse nor a sword.

What he had was just his tools and a plan

Page 6: THE LEGEND OF THE WAWEL DRAGON

The boy bought a dead sheep from a butcher and some sulphur (the

powder that is used in making matches) from a miner.

He put the sheep by the dragon’s cave and waited behind the rock for the dragon

to come out.

After a while, the greedy dragon came out and greedily ate the animal.

The sulphur caught fire, like a match, and the dragon felt his stomach

burning. He ran to the river and started drinking water. He drank so much that

he filled up like a balloon. Suddenly the dragon went BANG and

exploded!

Exactly what the shoemaker had planned

At last the people were free of him.All started to cheer.

Krak and the princess married.

After her father, the King, died, Krak became King, as

promised.He built a castle on top of

the Wawel Hill and for hundreds of years it was

where the Kings of Poland lived.

People built a city around the hill, which they named

Krakow, after their new king.
