In medieval times, a fireman on the higher tower of St. Mary's Church in Krakow gave the signal from the opening to the closing of Krakow's gates. He was also the watchman of Krakow, looking out for fires and enemies approaching the city. One day, the Tatars attacked Krakow. That's when the vigilant fireman began to trumpet, warning the residents in the process. As the legend goes, while he was trumpeting, Tartar arrows pierced his throat, and the bugle call suddenly broke off. The trumpeter was killed by the arrow, and the memory of him remained forever just in the bugle played, which breaks off at the same moment when the guard stopped playing it. The bugle sounds to the four corners of the world. But do you know for whom it is played to each side? Well: the bugle call toward Wawel was played for the king himself, toward the City Hall tower - for the mayor and councillors, toward the Floriańska Gate and Barbican - primarily to welcome arriving guests, while toward the Small Market - for merchants and traders. 24-hour duty on the tower is performed by two bugle callers of the state fire department. Therefore, they perform the bugle song 48 times a day! The bugle callers have to climb about 300 stairs to reach their workplace in the tower of St. Mary's Church. Thus, it is one of the highest workplaces in Poland - they play the melody at a height of 81 meters! At high noon it is broadcast on Polish Radio Program I - anyone can hear it then.
