Sandomierz, Medieval municipality on seven hills in Świętokrzyskie, Poland.

The old town of Sandomierz spans across multiple hills near the Vistula River, with narrow streets leading to a central market square.

In the 12th century, Sandomierz functioned as a key trading center between the Baltic and Black Seas, earning recognition among Poland's principal cities.

The Gothic Cathedral houses rare Byzantine frescoes from the 1420s, displaying intricate religious scenes across its interior walls and ceilings.

The underground tourist route extends 500 meters through former merchant cellars, providing access to multiple chambers beneath the old town.

The Collegium Gostomianum, established in 1602, remains one of the oldest continuously operating secondary schools in Poland.
