This beautiful square takes its name, you guessed it, from salt. That's because, after the founding of the city, it was brought and stored here from the mines in and around Wieliczka. A true white mineral gold, vital for the preservation of the city-fortress' food supplies, this stock was better guarded than the city's treasury! Unfortunately, the original parapet walls and facade decorations have not been preserved, except on the house called "the rabbi's house" on the northern part of the square.

Il doit son nom au sel importé de Wieliczka et de Rus, stocké ici dans les premières années de fonctionnement de la ville.
Dans la façade est et nord du marché, les maisons à arcades ont survécu jusqu'à nos jours.
Malheureusement, les mansardes qui ont été démolis au 19ème siècle n'ont pas survécus.
