The Sigismundus III Column

It was built in 1643 by King Vladislas IV in commemoration to his father Sigismundus III, who moved the capital from Krakow to Warsaw. It is the most popular of the monuments and a great place to have your picture taken. Notice the pedicabs, they are an excellent way to get a quick tour of the Old Town.
