    Rynek w Żywiec - a medieval square located in Żywiec. Marked out in the 16th century in the so-called "lock key" after 1650 from the farm called "Kantorowskie".
    The origins of the square under the Żywiec market square can be traced back to archival documentation. The Royal Privilege granted in Warsaw by Prince Charles Ferdynand Waza and Princess Anna Katarzyna Konstancja Vasa on November 27, 1639 and approved by the Polish King Władysław IV Waza written in Latin on parchment under two seals.
    The market square in Żywiec is the main square in the city, located slightly west of the castle. The market square is surrounded by nice tenement houses, dominated by the characteristic Town Hall. Wooden stalls selling local handicrafts and regional souvenirs were set up on the Market Square. You can also sit under umbrellas and have a cold drink on hot days.
    Recently, the Market Square in Żywiec was revitalized, but it has already been put into use. The Market Square has been replaced and the entire square has significantly gained in beauty and now, uncrowded with cars, it is a real showcase of the city.
