The Bugaj jetty is under construction. Thanks to this we can admire the view reminiscent of Salvador Dali's paintings :)

It may not be the French Riviera or even a substitute for Polish Masuria. But as a park with a beach in the city. Quite an interesting development of the place.

The beginnings of secondary education in Piotrków date back to the second half of the 17th century and are associated with two orders: the Piarists and the Jesuits. The Piarists, after the unsuccessful efforts to open a college in Kraków in 1662, turned their attention to Piotrków, which was then the seat of the Crown Tribunal. They quickly gained the support of both the Piotrków townspeople and the church authorities, obtaining permission to settle in the city in 1674, and established a college in 1675. In 1677, the Sejm accepted their Piotrków foundation under the care of the king and the nation, exempting it from taxes. Initially, the school was located in a tenement house on Dominikańska Street (currently part of Wojska Polskiego Street). At the same time, the Piarists bought adjacent plots, eventually becoming the owners of a large block between Sieradzka, Nowe Miasto (currently Rycerska), Rwańska and Dominikańska Streets, designated for a church and school buildings. Their construction was completed in 1713. After the fire in Piotrków in 1731, a new, two-story, brick school building was built a year later, and in 1738 a boarding school building.

The beginnings of the prison in Piotrków date back to 1793, when the Prussians set it up in the Piarist monastery on Rwańska Street. In 1867, when the city became the capital of the Piotrków Governorate in the Russian partition, the Inquisitorial Prison was established here, in the years 1841-1860 it was the House of Research, and in the years 1861-1914 the Piotrków Prison. The old prison in Piotrków on Wojska Polskiego Street was closed in 2003.
