Attractions and Places To See around Torzym - Top 20

The current town hall building is most likely the third building to be erected on the New Market Square. The construction of the first council seat, and at the same time a merchant's house, can be dated to the mid-14th century. It is possible that the oldest town hall was in the form of a market hall, most likely built in a wooden structure. In the 15th century, another town hall was built in the form of a brick building, which, after modern reconstructions, stood until the 19th century. It was demolished in 1841, and a year later, construction of a new building began. Construction was completed in 1844. In addition to the city authorities, it also housed a restaurant, a beer house and a city museum. After World War II, until 1972, next to the seat of the city authorities, it also housed a hotel, a library and a cooperative bank. Currently, the entire building is occupied by the city and commune authorities and the Civil Registry Office.

The history of the chapel dates back to the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, when a hospital was built outside the city walls. A small church was also built along with the hospital. It was probably a half-timbered structure, which, due to its poor technical condition, was rebuilt in brick in the 15th century. In the 18th century, a cemetery was built next to the church, and since then the church has served as a cemetery chapel.

The original manor house from the 2nd half of the 18th century. The palace is located in the south-eastern part of the town. The whole is situated on a plot of 52,500 m2. The building was built on a rectangular plan, two-storey, partially basemented with a usable attic. The entrance is preceded by a quadrangular porch with a balcony. In the side elevation (northern), in the right corner there is a cylindrical tower, finished with a terrace and a conical spire, while in the left corner there is a projection with a protruding, separated part of the roof slope. In 1997, the roof covering, window and door joinery were replaced.

The palace was an element of the entire farm complex established in the 17th century. The owners were the von Selchow family. The palace was expanded at least three times in the period from the mid-17th century until 1900. It is a large building on a rectangular plan, two-storey, with a basement and an attic. A tower was added in the north-western part. After the war, the palace was managed by the local State Agricultural Farm. Currently, the palace is in private hands. The new owner of the building secured the palace from devastation by replacing the roof covering in 1997, but did not complete the renovation.

The old town square in Sulęcin. The town hall is missing, as it was burned by the Russians at the end of the war and then dismantled to take the bricks to Warsaw. The Fountain of Good Neighbourhood now stands on the site of the town hall.

In the 1990s, a Polish-German agreement on cooperation between border municipalities was signed in Sulęcin. As part of the efforts to achieve reconciliation, the Fountain of Good Neighbourhood was created in the market square in Sulęcin. It was built with the support of the Phare fund and the residents of Beeskow, and the author of the figures is the Gorzów sculptor Zofia Bilińska.

The town hall was built from 1841 to 1844 according to plans by the architect Emil Flaminius in neo-Gothic style on the site of the previously demolished older town hall from 1544
