FRANCISZKAŃSKA STREET [THE FRANCISCAN FRIARS STREET]
It is one of Przemyśl’s oldest streets; it runs from the Rynek Square [Old Town Square] to the Lvov Gate (hence it used to be called Lvov Street).
The present name of the street (FRANCISZKANSKA) appeared in the 18th c.and derives from the name of the located here church-monastery complex of Franciscan Friars.
Till the 70’s of the 20th c. the street was a part of the city corso leading from the Legions Square to the City Park.
The street is worth noticing due to its historic houses built at the turn of the 19th c.
on the foundations of previous buildings.
