Kościuszki Street is the main artery of the town.  It has both sacred and secular buildings representing the old part of the town.  Their classical architecture, characteristic of the 19th century style, is most attractive. The architects included Piotr Aigner, Antonio Corazzi, Henryk Marconi and a Polish architect Karol Majerski.
