Barracks Square (nowadays Plac Teatralny) with its barracks building. Originally, on this site, was the first town parish church, which was burnt down in a big fire in 1789. The barracks, which existed until 1904, were founded in 1794 and built at the expenses of the state. Later, the barracks were destroyed and on the levelled ground the German Theatre was built.
