The Market Square is located in the Old Town on Panieński Hill, one of Gniezno. After a devastating fire in 1819 that destroyed most of Gniezno, the square was rebuilt according to new urban planning that created a spatial axis between the cathedral and the evangelical church, with only two original medieval buildings surviving. Today the cobblestone square features a fountain inaugurated in 2014, and during winter months it hosts a 10-12 meter Christmas tree and an ice rink that has operated since 2008.

After the Second Partition of Poland, the surrounding areas were incorporated into Prussia, but not for long. After Napoleon's fall, the border between Prussia and Russia was finally moved and ran between the lakes: Kownackie, Suszewskie, Budzisławskie and Powidzkie. The areas east of the border fell under the rule of Tsarist Russia, and the western area was incorporated into the Kingdom of Prussia. The shifting of the border resulted in restrictions on free movement between the partitions. To cross the border, you had to obtain a special pass, the so-called ticket. A very important border point was Anastazewo. The Prussian-Russian border was located here, and for this reason a border crossing with a customs office was established here. In connection with the functioning of the border crossing between the partitions, it was necessary to organize a customs post. The Prussian one was located in a tall building built of red brick in a characteristic Prussian style, and it was located right by the road. Another interesting building is of course the Russian watchtower, which is a few dozen meters away in the tiny village of Salamonowo. It was the road between these two watchtowers that marked the borders between the partitions. /pojezierze24.pl/

The historic palace of the Żółtowski family, built in 1785, designed on a rectangular plan. Today, the facades have smooth plaster, but after subsequent poorly performed renovations they have no architectural details. The main facade once had three shallow avant-corps with round corners. The middle one, at which the main entrance is located, was covered with a portico in later years. Two side ones with three axes have been preserved to this day, ending with low gables in the form of attics with a wavy-step flow line, with an ellipse-shaped opening in the central part. The interior of the palace was completely rebuilt and stripped of its decor during renovation in 1965–1966. Originally, the interior had two bays, it had a large vestibule on an axis, with stairs leading to the first floor. There, in the central part, there was a large living room occupying a large part of the back hall. On the left and right sides there were connected rooms arranged in enfilade. The interiors had stucco and perhaps polychrome. /Wikipedia/

The bandit Maciej allegedly carried out his criminal activities in the area of Modliszewo and Modliszewko during the times of King Władysław. He attacked and robbed merchants who were passing by, following the route from the north to Gniezno, or heading from Gniezno towards the Baltic Sea. Since nothing is known about his companions, he had to be strong and fit to act alone. One day, Matthias attacked a caravan of merchants traveling from Italy. He robbed them, but they managed to escape alive. When they reached Gniezno, they told the mayor everything. And although he was very concerned about the report, he had no idea or means to find and capture the robber. However, when he learned from the merchants that they were carrying significant supplies of Tuscan wine, he ordered them to go immediately and find the robber. As it turned out, this time it didn't take long to find the perpetrator of the attack. Well, immediately after his success, the villain tasted the wine. And because he drank too much of it, he fell asleep under a tree. And so the robber Maciej was captured near the Koreczno forester's lodge. /tupowstalapolska.pl - trail of myths and legends of the Gniezno district/
