Urban development of Bełchatów can be divided into three stages: 1. the feudal period (till 1737) 2. capitalist period (1870-1945) 3. post-war period, with particularly rapid spatial and lunctional transformation occurring from the 1970s after establishment of lignite open-pit mines and construction of power station in the town’s vicinity. i rom this time on, Bełchatów at first experienced an ‘inner’ development within the existing mediaeval spatial layout, which was followed by a stage of additive, external development consisting in annexation of outer terrains. The present spatial structure of Bełchatów is largely a result of processes that took place within the last 30 years. The today’s urban structure of Bełchatów is composed of central district of medieval origin with some relics of old layout, surrounded by multi- and single-family housing estates. Industrial areas do not collide with residential districts. The administrative limits of Bełchatów include former medieval town of Grocholice where medieval street pattern has been partially preserved.
