The Armenian houses, are named so because they are in the area where an special privilege it was granted to them by Jan Zanoyski
The houses are painted red, blue, yellow ... to match the others and get a nice colourful in all the square
The facades are decorated with figures like those of the Virgin Mary that is crushing a dragon with his foot or with the Archangel Gabriel with a lily in hand , although there are also lions and dragons
La casas Armenias , que reciben este nombre pues están en la zona en que por un privilegio especial les concedido Jan Zanoyski
Las casas están pintadas de colores rojos , azules , amarillos ... a juego con las otras y consiguen un gran colorido sin estridencias en toda la plaza
Las fachadas están decoradas con figuras como las de La Virgen María que está aplastando a un dragón con su pie o con el Arcángel San Gabriel con un lirio en las manos aunque en la parte superir hay también leones y dragones

The Town Hall is in one of the sides of the square and curiously is not centred because Jan Zamoyski did lik ethat in order that his palace were the most important building in Zamosc and to integrate it into the square
The city and its tower of 52 m height were unscathed during World War II, so this tower as the whole city is one of the best preserved cities in Poland
El ayuntamiento está en uno de los lados de la plaza y curiosamente no está centrado ya que Jan Zamoyski lo hizo así para que no le quitara protagonismo a su palacio y que se integrara en la plaza
La ciudad y su torre de 52 m de altura no fueron debastadas durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial , por tanto esta torre como toda la ciudad es una de las ciudades mejor conservadas de Polonia
