Stare miasto

Rynek to serce naszego miasta. W tym miejscu zaczęła się jego historia. Jednak nie wybrano go ze względów estetycznych, a czysto praktycznych. Zaokrąglone koryto rzeki Łuny było bowiem naturalną fosą. Na przełomie XIII i XIV wieku przekopano je z pozostałych stron, a miasto otoczono jeszcze pasem fortyfikacji z trzema bramami i tuzinem baszt.

Miasto modernizowało się, a mury i fortyfikacje przestały być potrzebne. W większości je rozebrano. Z pierwotnego układu została m.in. imponująca gotycka wieża. Ta XIV-wieczna budowla była jedną z trzech bram strzegących miasta. Dziś jest jego symbolem.

Ratusz zbudowano prawdopodobnie krótko po usamorządowieniu się miasta. Budynek zbudowano w stylu późnego gotyku na planie prostokąta. Niestety, wielki pożar z 1620 roku doszczętnie zniszczył ratusz. Potem zbudowano go niemal od nowa. Władze miasta zajmowały wówczas całe piętro budynku, podczas gdy parter przeznaczony był dla celów handlowych. Dobudowano też wieżę, będącą wartownią. W piwnicach Starego Ratusza kwitł natomiast handel.

How it working

To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.

STEP 1

You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.

STEP 2

After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.

STEP 3

The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!

STEP 4

Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links

Would you like to implement the project in your city as well?

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.

Project partners

Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.

Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
