A beautiful chapel, frequented and well-maintained. A place of still very vibrant devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

It's a good stretch of promenade, but I don't recommend riding there. It's narrow and easy to hit someone.

On a Monday morning in December, there is a chance for less crowds. Overall, a cult place. A strong hit on a market day. A must 🔥🔥🔥

The market square in Kazimierz Dolny was marked out after the city was founded under Magdeburg law in 1406. It is the central urban point of the city, with an open view of the parish church and the castle ruins. The market square has retained its historical layout with a characteristic undeveloped northern part of the square. For centuries, it has served a commercial and social function. It is currently the tourist heart of Kazimierz, surrounded by historic tenement houses, including Przybyłów, Celejowska and Czarnotów. In its center stands a historic well from the 19th century, one of the symbols of the city.

The historic well in the Market Square in Kazimierz Dolny is one of the most recognizable symbols of the city. It was built in the 19th century as a street fountain, and in 1913 the architect Jan Koszczyc-Witkiewicz gave it its current appearance - a wooden casing with a characteristic roof and a pazdur. In later years, the well was modernized: an Abyssinian pump was installed, and in the 1980s a new cast iron pump and lighting. The last renovation was carried out in 2012. According to local legend, whoever drinks water from the well will always return to Kazimierz. The water is suitable for drinking and washing fruit bought at the local market. Similar wells are also located in the corner of the Market Square, on Krakowska and Lubelska streets.
