Poland: Old City of Zamość

The osiedle Old City is the oldest historic district of the city of Zamość. According to UNESCO, this monument value lies in it being "an outstanding example of a Renaissance planned town of the late 16th century, which retains its original layout and fortifications and a large number of buildings of particular interest, blending Italian and Central European architectural traditions.". The Medieval Town has an area of 75 ha and a buffer zone of 200 ha. The district was named one of Poland's official national Historic Monuments(Pomnik historii), as designated September 16, 1994.
