Arafia Kasparus was established in 1926. Initially, Holy Masses were celebrated in the rectory building. In 1927, a church was built thanks to contributions from parishioners. Saint Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The construction was supervised by the servant of God, Fr. Antoni Arasmus, the first steward of the parish. Currently, the parish does not have its own parish priest, and the parish priest from Skórcz is the administrator. On the night of December 30/31, 2020, there was a church fire. Almost the entire substance of the building was destroyed. Only the outer walls of the main nave and the presbytery survived. Work is currently underway to rebuild the temple as faithfully as possible to its shape and view before the fire.

The oldest part of the city - on this side of the Wierzyca River, there used to be a farm and a village belonging to Piotr Święca. Shortly after he sold the local lands to the Teutonic Knights, in 1305, under the direction of Theodotus from Florence, they began to mark out the area for the development of a new settlement. In this way, a spatial layout was created with a regular network of streets radiating from the centrally located square market square, which is larger than the Old Town Square in Warsaw.

A great place for a swim, with water so clear you want to drink it and a bottom of light sand. It's also perfect for camping and a bonfire, even if the road is less frequented

The market square in Starogard Gdański is the oldest part of the city. In the Middle Ages, on the left bank of the Wierzyca River, there was a farm and a village that belonged to Piotr Święca. After selling them to the Teutonic Knights, around 1305, they began to mark out the area for the development of a fortified settlement. At that time, the construction works were supervised by Theodotus from Florence, to whom Starogard owes its spatial shape with a regular network of streets radiating from the centrally located market square, whose square of 107 m × 107 m is larger than the Old Town Square in Warsaw. Without a doubt, the Teutonic Order contributed to the economic development of the town.
