Opis

Świętojańska is the main axis of the Old Town, running from Castle Square to the Market Square. It takes its name from St. John's Archcathedral, where the street ends.

Most of the street's buildings date back to the post-war reconstruction, which faithfully recreated their state from before 1939.

Highlights

  • St. John's Archcathedral and the Jesuit Church standing side by side.
  • Townhouses with preserved emblems: 'Under St. Barbara' and 'Under the Eagle'.
