Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Jelenia Góra is a city in the Lower Silesian Region of south-western Poland. The name of the city means "Deer Mountain" in Polish and German languages. It is close to the Karkonosze mountain range running along the Polish-Czech border.
The Town Hall (Ratusz Miejski) is the central point of the market square. The building was erected between 1744 and 1749. The entire square is surrounded by Baroque tenement houses with arcades, which originally used to serve the merchands to sell their goods. At the beginning of the twentieth century the adjacent tenement houses were bought and adjoined to the Town Hall (the so-called "Seven-Houses"). In front of the Town Hall there is a fountain with a sculpture of Neptune – god of the seas. The sculpture is to commemorate old trade relations with overseas lands.
The Scotch Mist Gallery contains many photographs of historic buildings, monuments and memorials of Poland.
