Town square in Daleszyce

The town square (and formally Staszica Square) is the heart of the early medieval town, which for years was in the property of the bishops of Kraków. The square where the life and commerce of the inhabitants concentrated testifies to its urban character.

Daleszyce obtained city rights in the sixteenth century, lost them in the turbulent nineteenth century for Poland. Since 2007, they have enjoyed the status of a city again. The square-like plan was mainly surrounded by wooden buildings. Unfortunately, the town hall, which was demolished in 1843, has not survived to our times. Currently, the landscape of the town is dominated by the church of st. Michael the Archangel. The temple, as befits such a historic settlement, also has a medieval origin, although the present shape is the result of a modern, 20th-century reconstruction. It is worth coming to the Sunday service, when the miraculous image of Our Lady of the Scapular is unveiled with full ceremony. However, the inhabitants of Daleszyce prefer to call her more familiar - they describe her as the Daleszycka Mother of God.

In 2012, the town square changed beyond recognition, it is adorned with granite pavement, a spherical fountain and a sundial. After the hardships of hiking, you can rest on the benches.
