Café Noworolski

Noworolski is a café located at the ground floor of the Cloth Hall, Kraków, Lesser Poland.

Opened in 1910, it became popular among the elite of Kraków, with artists and professors, thereby competing with Jama Michalika. It hosted famous persons such Jacek Malczewski, Wojciech Kossak, Vladimir Tetmajer, Julian Fałat, Frederick Pautsch, Louis Puget, Ignacy Daszyński, Józef Piłsudski, Charles Hubert Rostworowski, Jerzy Buzek and others.

During the Nazi occupation the cafe was requisitioned and access allowed only to Germans. The family Noworolski again lost the place in 1949, when the cafe was nationalized by the communists and renamed. After the fall of communism, the café was restituted to the family in 1992.
