A monument to Mieszko I
A monument to Mieszko I, the first Cieszyn Duke. An obelisk of the Emperor Francis Joseph I, which had been left abandoned until 1931, was used in the new monument by the well-known sculptor Jan Raszka. The figure of duke was cleared away by the Nazi invader in 1939; however, the figure was put back in its place again in 1957.
