The Market Square is located in the Old Town on Panieński Hill, one of Gniezno. After a devastating fire in 1819 that destroyed most of Gniezno, the square was rebuilt according to new urban planning that created a spatial axis between the cathedral and the evangelical church, with only two original medieval buildings surviving. Today the cobblestone square features a fountain inaugurated in 2014, and during winter months it hosts a 10-12 meter Christmas tree and an ice rink that has operated since 2008.

This historic bell was cast in 1761 in Gniezno by bellmaker Jan Zachariasz Neuberdt and weighs 1,450 kg with a height of 108 cm and a ring diameter of 135 cm. It features a relief of Blessed Bogumił, the Archbishop of Gniezno, holding a cross, along with Latin inscriptions including "I have become as sounding brass" from Corinthians. The bell was damaged during a fire in 1945, resulting in a torn crown that is now decorated with angel heads, and it currently stands by the southern walls of the cathedral.
