Radom is one of Poland’s largest cities, and it is in the area south of the capital Warsaw. Radom developed as a settlement in the Middle Ages and obtained city rights in 1364. The town grew rapidly with the construction of a town hall, a royal residence and city walls. Many kings visited the city, which was venue for several political decisions such as nihil novi in 1505, which took place at the city castle. However, the period of growth came to an end with Sweden’s invasion in 1655.
Today there are several interesting sights in Radom. You can start with a stroll in the old part of town, where the market square Rynek forms the center of Radom. In the square you can see the city’s town hall from 1848, a monument to the Polish legions formed during the First World War, and you can visit the Jacek Malczewski Museum, which exhibits various art, archeology and natural sciences.
There are also other museums in the city. At the former Elektrownia power station from 1903, you can explore a museum of modern art, created in an exciting architectural setting. South-west of Radom is the Muzeum Wsi Radomskiej, an open-air museum dedicated to rural life with lovely historic environments that tell the culture and architecture of the Radom region.
Radom’s large neo-Gothic cathedral is one of the city’s landmarks. The cathedral was designed by Józef Pius Dziekoński and built in the years 1898-1918. The cathedral faces one of Radom’s green areas, Park Kościuszki, from where you can walk to the city’s neoclassical provincial administration building from 1825-1827 in Plac Antonio Corazziego. From here you can take a walk along the Stefana Żeromskiego street.
