    This well was discovered during the first stage of the revitalization of the Oława Market Square in 2019. Archaeologists examined it at that time. After pumping out the water, it turned out that the well was seven meters deep and was built of crushed stone. It is also interesting that its lower, ground-level part was covered with oak boards connected with wooden pegs, and the upper part, located right at the surface, was built over with brick in the 19th century. Its oldest wooden and stone structure dates back to the 16th-17th centuries. Interestingly, only a few artifacts in the form of fragments of animal bones and clay vessels were recovered from the bottom filled with sand. It is possible that such a small concentration of finds may be dictated by the fact that it was cleaned and re-adapted at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
