The Wawel Dragon (Polish: Smok Wawelski), also known as the Dragon of Wawel Hill, is a famous dragon in Polish legend. According to the earliest account (13th century), a dragon (Latin: holophagus, "one who swallows whole") plagued the capital city of Kraków established by legendary King Krak (or Krakus, Gracchus, etc.). The man-eating monster was being appeased with a weekly ration of cattle, until finally defeated by the king's sons using decoy cows stuffed with sulfur. But the younger prince ("Krak the younger" or "Krak junior") murdered his elder brother to take sole credit, and was banished afterwards. Consequently Princess Wanda had to succeed the kingdom. Later in a 15th-century chronicle, the prince-names were swapped, with the elder as "Krak junior" and the younger as Lech. It als

  • O Dragão de Wawel (Smok Wawelski, em polonês) é uma das mais antigas e conhecidas lendas da Polônia. Diz a lenda que após um longo período de prosperidade, a desgraça chega ao país do príncipe (origem do nome da cidade "Cracóvia"). Os pastores começaram a dar falta de alguns de seus animais e depois desapareciam também moradores sem razão aparente. Isto tudo fica muito tempo inexplicável até o dia em que um jovem, indo pegar ervas na beira do Rio Vístula se aproxima do sopé da colina . Lá, ele vê ossos na beira do rio e um pouco mais longe, no rochedo da colina, ele percebe uma gruta e ao lado dela um dragão enorme e pavoroso que repousava tranquilamente ao sol. Seu corpo era coberto de escamas verde-amarelas reluzentes e com patas imensas como troncos. (pt)
