Later, King Wladyslaw II Jagiello modernized Kazimierz Dolny, creating a modern town, with a market square and streets. It enjoyed its greatest prosperity in the 16th and the first half of the 17th century, due to the trade in grain conducted along the Vistula. Celejowska town house was built for a wealthy merchant family. It has a fabulous attic storey, a balustrade filled with carved figures of saints and an assortment of imaginary creatures, richly ornamented windows and a fine entrance portal and hallway. It now houses the Town Museum. ## Related artworks - [Castle]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [General view]() - [General view]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
