City walls in Tarnów, Medieval defensive walls in Tarnów, Poland.
The fortification walls extend around the historic center of Tarnów, featuring thick stone construction with remaining sections of the original structure.
The defensive walls of Tarnów were constructed in the 14th century under the reign of King Władysław I, following the city's acquisition of Magdeburg rights.
The walls incorporate local architectural elements and materials, demonstrating the medieval building techniques and defensive strategies of southeastern Poland.
Visitors can explore the preserved sections of the walls through a marked path that connects several observation points in the Old Town.
