Thanks to the investment, the beach has gained, among other things: a pier, a recreation area with deckchairs, benches, umbrellas, lighting, a barbecue area. There are also more green areas.

Bicycle traffic is prohibited at the cemetery, but it is several dozen square meters. There is a place to rest the bike and go boldly

A four-wing Teutonic commander's castle, erected in 1330 on the shore of the Castle Lake. Built in the well-known four-sided form with a corner tower of the "bergfried" type, probably according to the design of the same architect who had previously erected Gniew Castle. During the Polish-Swedish war in 1628, it was seriously damaged during a siege by the Swedes, and then abandoned. Currently, the castle is in ruins.
