Lonely Planet review

Stretching out from the foot of the cathedral, the vast Rynek shows the extent of the war damage. Only the southern side of the square is anything like it used to be, with its restored houses originally dating from the 16th century. The detached building facing them, the Town Weighing House (Dom Wagi Miejskiej; 1604), retains fragments of 19th-century wall painting on a side wall.

Just round the corner, on ul Bracka, there are more historic houses and a 1701 copy of the Baroque Triton Fountain by Bernini in Rome.
