Summary/Abstract: Scholars have paid attention to the history of Horodnica since the nineteenth century. The plan of Horodnica of 1780 is the starting point for this article. It is kept in the library of the University of Warsaw. The study combines the analysis of visual sources and documents. Because of different historical events, part of the documents was lost. It does not give a possibility to indicate the date of construction of factories, schools, and other buildings. Based on the plan of 1780, we analyse different areas on the territory of Horodnica. The architectural harmony of Horodnica was destroyed after Tyzenhauz was removed from management in 1780. Most of the buildings were ruined during the Soviet period.
