Old towns & squares

Promenade in Radom

The Radom promenade is the main pedestrian section of Stefana Żeromskiego Street, the city’s representative avenue. Once a route towards Lublin, it is lined with 19th-century townhouses featuring ornate façades, balconies and architectural details. The route also presents Radom’s urban and industrial history.

Townhouses and a palace

Look up at the building numbers. Kierzkowski Palace at 36 Żeromskiego Street dates from 1828 and stands out with its semi-columns and panoplies. The townhouses at 21 Żeromskiego and 2 Witolda Street have decorative window surrounds and a bay window, while the former Land Credit Society building at number 35 resembles a small manor house. This is a rewarding section for visitors interested in urban architecture and photography.

Fountains and details

The centre of the promenade is Constitution 3 May Square, with fountains and regular city events. By number 4 you can find two dwarf figures and the preserved “Kasia” neon sign; inside number 5, look for a ceiling panel with a white eagle. The courtyard at number 28 also hides the former printing house of Jan Kanty Trzebiński, built in 1918.

Practical information

It is free public space, accessible around the clock. A good route runs from Kazimierz Wielki Square towards Constitution 3 May Square, with stops at the fountains and townhouse façades. Combine it with Resursa Obywatelska, the Planty park or the Jacek Malczewski Museum. Check the city events calendar before travelling, as concerts and festivals may affect traffic or access to individual places.
