In the vicinity of the city is situated an attractive area called the Great Mounds. For the first time, these low hills attracted researchers in the early 19th century, when versions of their natural origin were put forward. As further studies have shown, the mounds have been created by people. They were erected in the 5th-6th centuries over the tombs of the governors of the Svei tribe. There are about 800 hills in the area. Archaeological research has been ongoing for over a hundred years. Many interesting artifacts were discovered at that time.
The King's Palace is the most beautiful architectural monument. Five outstanding architects have been working on its construction for over a century. The construction of the magnificent palace in the Renaissance style began in 1549. In the 17th century, many historical activities important for the city took place within its walls. At the beginning of the 18th century, the palace was damaged greatly by fire. The construction was fully restored only in the middle of the 19th century. Nowadays, part of the historic building is occupied by the city government. Most of the buildings are occupied by three museums.
