A significant change in the appearance of the market square occurred in 1857, when the old town hall standing here was demolished, and a new town hall was built at the nearby Magistracki Square. Next to the market square, at Ko\u015bcielny Square, there is a Classicist evangelical church from the end of the 18th century, and the Porcelain Museum is nearby.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background is-style-dots\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\"\/>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u015awidnica<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f56f613f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cb-carousel cb-single-slide\" data-slick=\"{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1,&quot;speed&quot;:300,&quot;arrows&quot;:false,&quot;dots&quot;:true,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;autoplaySpeed&quot;:3000,&quot;infinite&quot;:false,&quot;responsive&quot;:[{&quot;breakpoint&quot;:769,&quot;settings&quot;:{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1}}]}\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cb-slide\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Swidnica-rynek-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u015awidnica<\/strong><br\/>\u015awidnica&#8217;s old town is distinguished by its historic, compact buildings and an urban layout of the market square that has remained unchanged since medieval times.

The Museum of Old Merchantry is also located here. Near the market square, the Cathedral of St Stanislaus and St Wenceslaus towers over the city, and the evangelical Church of Peace (a UNESCO World Heritage site) is also located close to the square.      <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background is-style-dots\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\"\/>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Strzegom<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f56f613f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cb-carousel cb-single-slide\" data-slick=\"{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1,&quot;speed&quot;:300,&quot;arrows&quot;:false,&quot;dots&quot;:true,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;autoplaySpeed&quot;:3000,&quot;infinite&quot;:false,&quot;responsive&quot;:[{&quot;breakpoint&quot;:769,&quot;settings&quot;:{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1}}]}\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cb-slide\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-985\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bikesudety.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-2-2048x1364.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Strzegom<\/strong><br\/>Strzegom&#8217;s old town is characterised by richly decorated tenement houses rebuilt after WWII, as well as villas and outbuildings.
