Its age is six centuries. The history of the entire city overfills the aura of this small piece of land, where 44 incredibly beautiful kamenitsas are located. 7 streets and 1 square stretch out from the angles of the Market Square.
Here are some of the outstanding kamenitsas:
The Bandinelli Kamenitsa is called in honor of Italian Roberto Bandinelli, descendant of a famous sculpture Bartolomeo Bandinelli, who created in the times of great Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael. In 1629 first post office was established here – couriers were sent to all around Europe twice a week.
