August 28, 2025 Video Credit #ITHISTORY - Beneath the tranquil town of Wieliczka in Poland lies one of the most extraordinary subterranean creations in human history. The more than 300-kilometer-long Wieliczka Salt Mine is home to chapels carved entirely from salt, a massive cathedral, and even an underground lake that was once navigable by visitors. For centuries, royalty, scientists, and artists have been drawn to its shadowy depths.

But not everything has been revealed. Sealed shafts, hidden monuments, and forgotten sculptures have been rediscovered in recent decades—remains of a working mine that also became a place of faith, devotion, and art. From the world's largest underground chapel to a forgotten salt obelisk dedicated to an emperor: This is the story of the lost wonders of the Wieliczka Salt Mine and why they still fascinate today.
