Przeworsk Town Hall, Rathaus in Polen
Przeworsk Town Hall is a brick building in the center of the market square, featuring Gothic architectural details including pointed windows and decorative stone work. It has two main floors above a basement, with a tower topped by a small cupola rising prominently above the surrounding structures.
The building was likely constructed in the early 1400s under Jan Tarnowski, the town owner, and served as a meeting place for local authorities, a court, and a jail. In later periods it housed shops, an inn, and eventually the local fire station.
The market square has long served as the gathering place where townspeople conducted business and civic affairs. It remains a focal point where locals and visitors experience the rhythm of daily life in Przeworsk.
The town hall is easily located in the center of the market square and accessible during office hours. It contains a wedding room, a tourist information center, and a cafe where visitors can rest and refresh themselves.
The building underwent major alterations in 1909 when a new tower with loggia and copper roof sheeting was added. A careful restoration between 1984 and 1986 reinforced the roof and updated the interior while preserving its historic character.
