The Artists' Square in Kielce

From spring to autumn, the square located where Sienkiewicza and Kapitulna streets meet becomes the venue for exhibitions, happenings and outdoor events.

Every year around September, it showcases contemporary installations by internationally recognised artists, such as the painter Leon Tarasewicz and the sculptor Ludwika Ogorzelec.

Year round, the locals and tourists are reminded of the legend about the origin of Kielce thanks to the monument of a wild boar called Kiełek (Little Fang). Artists’ Square, at ul. Sienkiewicza 29, is also home to the Regional Tourist Information Centre and a local branch of the Polish Tourist and Sightseeing Society (PTTK). Two walking trails depart from here: blue (going through the City Park and Kadzielnia to Pierścienica Mountain in the south of Kielce) and green (going through Kadzielnia and Wietrznia to Bukówka).
