Lonely Planet review for Town Walls & Execution Tower

Near the church are the remains of the town walls and what has become known as Execution Tower (Katownia). Biecz was allowed to pass death sentences, and there was even a corporation of executioners who appear to have taken their job pretty seriously. In the year 1614 alone, some 120 brigands were executed here.
