Despite the town's long history, and the market's square's location on a hill, none of its buildings predate the 19th century - a sad result of numerous fires. That certainly doesn't stop the pink-painted Town Hall from standing out, however. A mix of Neo-Gothic and Neo-Romanesque architecture from the turn-of-the-20th-century, Sanok's Town Hall was designed by Władysław Beksiński - grandfather of renowned 20th-century painter Zdzisław Beksiński, who was born in Sanok in 1929. You'll find a monument to the famous artist in the east corner of the market square, and you can see his work in Sanok Castle. To enjoy a coffee/beer as you watch the world go by, stay right here.
