The church located at 12 Miejska Street in
Rybnik is one of the parish churches of the
Katowice diocese of the Evangelical Church of
the Augsburg Confession. The origins of the
church erected on this site are associated with
an old wooden building used for storing and
drying fishing nets, which during the reign of
Frederick William, King of Prussia, was
reconstructed and adapted for the church. The
present building dates from the mid-nineteenth
century.
The building of the local government (starostwo) in Rybnik ranks among the most beautiful examples of historicizing styles of architecture in Upper Silesia, which alludes to the so-called Northern Renaissance, also known as the Dutch Renaissance. The building is said to have been built in 1887, and in the interwar period it was expanded. After the restoration work its façade adorned with an elegant gable and turret is particularly beautiful.
The palace in Rybnik is also known as the Piast
Castle, but since the times of the Piast dynasty it
has undergone many changes. Although the first
mention of the castle dates to 327, we know that
it existed here as a wooden building in the first
half of the thirteenth century, and it had
probably been constructed in the twelfth
century. The present form of the palace primarily
resulted from the rebuilding in the eighteenth
century, when it was given the late baroque and
neoclassicist appearance.
The market square in Rybnik has served as the
center of the city since the Middle Ages. Old,
wooden buildings around the square were
destroyed in many fires, so the houses that
surround the market square come mainly from the
nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Worthy of note
is the Classicist town hall, decorated with a clock
tower, from the 20s of the nineteenth century. It
now houses, inter alia, the Rybnik Museum. A late
Baroque statue of Saint John of Nepomuk stands on
the market square.
The Church of Our Lady of Sorrows, built at the turn of
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, is the
parish church, carrying on the tradition of the socalled old temple. Hill Church, which currently
remains the choir - performing the function of
the chapel of the academic day. Church, the call
is connected with eighteenth-century piety, was
also the site of the baptism of Fr. Blachnicki
