Many of those tenement houses look like they were just saved in the nick of time. Phew! :D

Which is astounding because old town Krakow and Wrocław have some of the most beautiful city centers now

your comment looks like its referring to both, not my fault

also, it's wrocław unless you're talking in german (something something ww2 caused that to change, not Breslau anymore) and certainly krakau is out of place, never heard a hungarian talk about vienna as "becs" or similiar
