Where Was The Getaway King Filmed?
‘The Getaway King’ was filmed in various regions throughout Poland, especially in Malopolskie, Slaskie, and Mazowieckie.

Malopolskie
For filmed purposes, the cast and crew of ‘The Getaway King’ set up tents in one of Poland’s oldest cities — Kraków. Located on the Vistula River in Malopolskie AKA Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Kraków is considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, making it an outstanding recording site. As a city with a rich history, it is home to many historical architectural styles, which worked in favor of filming the film that was made in the 1980s.
