| Abstract | This paper present the contemporary problems of development and functioning of Sigismund the Old Square in Karczew, with particular emphasis on the historical strata and aspects of its development, related to the centuries-old tradition of commercial market. The Square was a main presentable space and main city square since the end of the sixteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century a. It was located west of the previous market square. Another city square was founded in the eighteenth century, west from the Square, also being a marketplace. All 3 squares were located on the main trade route east-west leading to the crossing of the Vistula River. In the second half of the twentieth century Square has been transformed from a historically market space for multi-purpose space, which somehow includes: small garden, parking space serving the city and space for mass events. These various functions located in different parts of square cause confusion. Buildings realized in the center of the market space in the twentieth century divides the squarew into 3 main parts. The nature and quality of those buildings do not correspond to the rank of the central square of the city, which has ceased to be lively main public space of the city. The main administrative center of the city is now located about 250-300 meters to the west of the Square, which further reduces the significance of the square. Another important problem is transit traffic, including heavy, run by the old trade route east-west through the city center, including through space of square. The article contains general suggestions proposed revitalization activities aimed at standardizing the whole composition of square area, indicating potential errors that appeared in similar activities covering a historic plazas. |
