The LEGEND of the Wawel Dragon
1 On top of Wawel hill in Krakow, Poland is a grand castle. It was the home of Polish kings throughout the Middle Ages. The castle is a well-known tourist attraction in Poland. However, what continues to attract tourists even more over the years is a cave at the bottom of the hill. According to legend, it was the home of the Wawel Dragon, Polandtasks most famous beast!
2 There are various versions of this famous legend. One of the older stories tells of a small village on the River Vistula near Wawel hill. Many of the villagers believed that a powerful dragon was asleep in the cave at the bottom of the hill. Old people in the village warned the others not to wake the dragon or they would all be in danger.
3 Some of the young people in the village did not believe in the dragon. They decided to explore the cave and prove there was no dragon there. They took some torches and went into the cave. Once inside the cave, they heard heavy breathing and saw a huge scary beast. They started to run away, but it was too late. The dragon was awake!
4 As the young people were running away, they turned back to look at the cave. In the entrance, they saw a fierce fire-breathing dragon with six arms and a long tail. From that day on, the people lived in fear. Everyday the dragon carried off and ate their farm animals. Sometimes the dragon would even take people instead of animals.
5 Many brave men of the village tried to kill the dragon, but didntaskt succeed. One day, a shoe makertasks wise apprentice named Krakus (Krak) thought of a better way to kill the dragon. He stuffed some dead sheep with sulphur. Then he placed the sheep outside the dragontasks cave and waited for the dragon to come out. Eventually the dragon came out of his cave. It saw the sheep and greedily ate them. The sulphur began to burn inside its stomach and it ran to the river to drink some water. The dragon became very sick.
6 Krak followed the dragon and began to throw stones at it. The dragon tried to blow fire at Krak but couldntaskt because of all the water in its stomach. It continued to drink and drink until finally it exploded. A simple shoemaker was victorious in killing the dragon and saving the village.
7 The people were overjoyed and made Krak the ruler of the village. Together they castle on Wawel hill. Krak became a great king. More and more people came to Wawel hill and it eventually became the great city of Krakow in honour of Krakus.
