Zamosc
One always present in the city tourist routes ranging from Lublin to Krakow Zamosc.
Its heritage is reborn only in Poland has become a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992.
was founded by Jan Zamoyski, chancellor of Poland and the supreme head of the army. With its great liberal arts education, dreamed of creating a city that would meet the ideals and at the same time to serve as a fortress.
The construction began in 1580 e nel progetto iniziale era previsto un palazzo, una chiesa, un’università e vari edifici pubblici. Dovuto anche alla sua collocazione tra Lublino e Cracovia fu meta di commercio procedenti da vari punti d’Europa come Italia, Armenia, Grecia etc.. e moltissimi ebrei decisero di stabilirsi proprio in questa città.
Nel 1648 si costruisce la prima fortezza per difesa dagli attacchi dei cosacchi e qualche anno dopo (1656) fu usata contro gli attacchi degli svedesi e permetterà che Zamosc sia una delle tre città polacche a non esser mai stata occupata dalla Svezia (insieme a Danzica e Czestochowa).
Durante le divisioni dei territori passerà first in Austrian hands, then even more fortified Russian town.
