The Salt Market (Rynek Solny) is a small rectangular market square designed in the Jesuit style. The name comes from the salt that was traded in this place in the Middle Ages. Part of its buildings was destroyed during World War II, and along with the modernization of the surrounding buildings at the beginning of the 20th century, its medieval character was restored. By the Salt Market, there is a Jesuit complex belonging to the monks who arrived in Nysa in the 1620s, consisting of the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the building of the former St. Anne's Seminary, currently serving as the seat of the State Music School, and the building of the former Jesuit college, which houses the Jan III Sobieski "Carolinum" High School. In their vicinity, the house of the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Elizabeth and reconstructed bourgeois tenement houses also deserve attention. Practical information: The facility can be viewed from the outside. Free parking spaces in the market square.
