The urban layout of Ciężkowice
|
 Ciężkowice gmina: Ciężkowice |
| The urban layout of Ciężkowice has retained its medieval character. The town is arranged on a rectangular plan, with a large market square in the centre with dimensions 130 x 100 m. A pair of streets leads off from each corner of the market square, and the town hall, dating from the turn of the C19th, stands in the middle. The terraced frontage of the square has retained its one-storey houses, with arcades supported by decorated columns. The oldest of these date from the middle of the C19th. Not far from the square is the Church of Christ the Merciful and St. Andrew from 1901-02, designed by J. Sas-Zubrzycki, with a wonderful baroque painting of Christ the Merciful. |
