Paczków has an interesting market square. It's a mix of architectural styles (so if you're a historian, you'll probably be a bit lost)—Baroque, Gothic, Renaissance... but it looks beautiful. The oldest townhouses date back to around 1500, as it was in the 16th century that the wooden buildings began to be replaced with brick ones.
