In this opening episode, we begin our journey with the legendary trumpet call in Krakow and the story that frames the Tatars as ancient invaders. But the truth is far more complex.

Hosts Ewa Górska and Maurits Berger trace the history of Tatar warriors who became part of the Polish nobility and military tradition. Along the way, they visit a mosque in Gdańsk, meet a Turkish imam, and reflect on what happened to Poland’s Tatar Muslims—and where to find them today.
