Mickiewicza Street, Białystok
Adama Mickiewicza Street () is a major street and thoroughfare running from the center of the city of Białystok. History 200px, View of the street, February 2021 The oldest traces of Mickiewicza Street can be found in the 16th century. At that time, it was a route leading from Zabłudów towards the Wiesiolowski manor and the parish church in Białystok. Until the end of the 17th century, this road was marked out in a straight line. In the first half of the 18th century, it changed its course due to the reconstruction of the Branicki Palace. Two courtyards were created in front of the palace and the previously straight road took on a characteristic bend, running along the palace fence. It then lost its character as a public road in the part that entered the palace and park area. At the intersection with Świętojańska Street, a gate was placed, closing access to the Danieli Menagerie. Communication with the city was therefore via Świętojańska Street and then Warszawska Str ...
