Thanks to its 70m high tower, the Church of St. Antonin the Great on Sokolovské Square has been one of the dominant features of Liberec for several centuries. The neighbouring townhall tower measures "only" 65m. The church replaced an original wooden building which was linked to the first mention of Liberec from the year 1352, in connection with the payment of taxes. The present church was built in 1579-87, most likely using the design of a builder called M. Spazia, and became the first brick building in the town. Its interior is moderately decorated in the protestant fashion. The 10m high altar picturing the patron-saints of the Czech country is probably the most precious object in the church.

This church dating from the mid-18th century is the most precious baroque edifice in the town. It was built in the place of the original church designed by the builder J.J. Kunze and built in 1696. The church probably got its name due to its gournd plan, which really did resemble a cross. Its look strongly resembles the church in the town of Hejnice. Another fact worth mentioning is that in 1759 the first public library in Liberec was founded here in the Church of St. Cross. This was mainly to the credit of Anton Kopsch, who also financed the rich decorations of the church. Many of the fine art works have remained in the church until today, the most precious of them being a figure of the Mother of God which has an interesting history of its own. The church itself is undoubtedly an exquisite work; however, its grounds are also decorated by many treasured monuments. In the church garden you can find a beautiful plague column from the workshop of the famous sculptor M. B. Braun, surrounded by the way of the cross with pictures by J. Fuhrich - a native from nearby town of Chrastava. .

The Waldstein's houses in Větrná street are the oldest preserved houses in Liberec. They originate from 1678-81 and are nowadays the only buildings reminding us of this classical type of merchant house which used to decorate the whole of the New Town. The name itself - the Waldstein's houses - is curious as they were built several tens of years after Albrecht of Waldstein had died. These houses were originally used by craftsmen and weavers and later there was an inn called "Near the town Petrohrad" in one of the houses. However, what probably attracted the attention of passers-by the most were the Christmas markets, which took place here every year and where many decorations and Christmas sweets were sold. As the time passed these precious buildings fell into disrepair to such an extent that they became a danger to their neighbours, and that was why their demolition was considered at one point. They escaped this sad fate thanks to the neighbouring Industrial School - its students and lecturers carried out this demanding reconstruction and thus saved these valuable memorials of Liberec history for future generations.

At the end of the 18th century, Liberec was famous as a centre of the textile industry. The textile producers built houses on land supplied with water needed for textile production, mainly on the Nisa River. In 1770 a textiles merchant, Bedřich Šolc, built his one-floor wooden chalet where, at present, the administration of the Jizera Mountains Reserve resides. The beauty of this, in Liberec unique, building has emerged more clearly after the park-like surroundings were arranged. Šolc's house shows the skill of the carpenters of the Podještědí region at the end of the 18th century.

The stunning neo-renaissance building of the town bath was constructed in 1901-02 according to the design of the Viennese architect Brang. The whole building, its exterior as well as the interior decorations, were adapted to its original function - a town bath. Its gable is decorated with a statue of Poseidon and his wife, while the sculptures above its windows represent water games. At present, however, the building is closed, its function being usurped by the nearby swimming pool. Tourists can admire only the exterior of the bath, which, despite its partial decay, still remains a testament to our ancestors' craft.

This cafeteria built in the Vienniese style is one of the pearls of Dr. E. Beneš's Square. Its neo-roccoco style, ceramic panelling, gold-plated relief, fantastic mirrors - all these create a cosy atmosphere in the style of the 19th century.

This unusual edifice was built by the architect Schmitz in 1900-01 at the request of Heinrich Liebieg. The building of Výšina was intended mainly for tourists and walkers as a place of refreshment as well as a viewing tower. This building is also interesting for its charming age-old look, which was created by a simple trick of its builders - they used stone blocks from demolished mediaeval houses in Nuremberg. The building itself went through stormy times; it decayed as time went by and in the end it had to be closed. Luckily, at present it has found a sponsor who has shouldered the responsibility of re-opening the building to tourists.
