Old Towns & Architecture Guides
44 guides
Almost every Polish city is built around a rynek, the market square with its town hall and merchants' houses, and many of the finest were rebuilt stone by stone after 1945.
These guides cover the old towns and walking routes of each city, the smaller historic towns worth a detour, and the architecture from Gothic brick to Art Nouveau and socialist realism.
