What to pay attention to on Castle Square?
1. The Royal Castle, which is a reconstruction of the ensemble blown up by the Germans in 1944.
2. Sigismund's Column, which was erected in 1644 by King Vladislav, son of Sigismund, in honor of his father. This is a unique baroque monument in Europe, which does not correspond to the traditional idea of ​ ​ ​ ​ a monument to the ruler - in those days only saints were revered in this way.
