The story

Story · Market Square

  • en

You're standing on Rynek Starego Miasta, the Old Town Market Square of Warsaw. This is the oldest part of the city. The square dates back to the late thirteenth century, when Warsaw itself was founded. Right up to the end of the eighteenth century, this was the beating heart of the whole city. And it's big: roughly ninety by seventy-three metres.
