Abstracts

EN

The study deals with the former market place in the city of Košice (former Kingdom of Hungary, now Slovakia), that has completely disappeared. The author presents the state of knowledge, archival sources and archaeological research in the introductory part of the text. Then he discusses the topography of the square and the role of the town hall there (no longer existing, too). Having analysed the written reports and compared Košice with foreign towns, especially Polish ones, the author subsequently identifies and locates, sometimes just tentatively, various stalls that stood on the market square between the end of the 14th and the beginning of the 17th century. A special chapter is aimed on the location of the butcher’s stalls situated on the nearby street. Finally, a brief consideration is given to the share of income from the stalls in the town’s budget, followed by a conclusion.
