Museum Zamek
13th century Gothic defence tower with 16th and 20th century extensions, near the river - too near, as many of the fortifications have been washed away. With small museum, and you can climb to the top of the tower.
This is the main market square, with most of the town amenities and sights clustered around. Many of its buildings including Town Hall (below) were rebuilt in the 19th century after a couple of disastrous fires, so there's a pleasing unity of style.
dating from mid-18th century, is a bosky place at the corner of Dąbrowskiego and Brzegi. Smashed up by the Nazis in 1941, it was repaired post-war but no further burials took place.
This is a striking modern (1983) Catholic church near Aleja Tysiąclecia
Ratusz
Local history museum within the town hall, which was built in the 1870s. It is a branch of the larger museum in the Castle.
