This late Renaissance church was built between 1592-1622 with funding from Archbishop Stanisław Karnkowski and features an impressive single-nave interior decorated with rococo polychromes from the 18th century painted by Bernardine priest W. Żebrowski. The church now serves as the Sanctuary of the Merciful Heart of Jesus, housing a painting of Merciful Jesus created by Professor Ludomir Sleńdziński following the instructions of Father Sopoćko.

The Wrocław Tollgate in Kalisz is a classicist building from 1827–1828, designed by Franciszek Reinstein. It served as a checkpoint and toll collection point at the entrance to the city from Wrocław. It is the only surviving tollgate among several existing in Kalisz from the 19th century. The structure is a templum in antis with a Doric portico. Until the end of the 19th century, it served as a customs house, later serving as a city scale and housing various institutions. Today, it is an architectural monument and a part of the city's historical transportation system.

September 13, 2025, Dorotka Tower

The tower began to be called "Dorotka" in the mid-19th century, perhaps because it served as a prison for indecent women for a time. However, Kalisz residents believe its name is connected to a legend about a starosta named Dorotka who fell in love with a poor shoemaker and was locked in the tower by her father.

The Dorotka Tower is located behind the collegiate church, from the park side. It is a fragment of the medieval city walls. It is a well-preserved, semicircular, two-storey tower with round gun slots. Built at the end of the 14th century, originally rectangular in shape, it was probably rebuilt in the 16th century to a semicircular shape. This monument is also associated with a certain legend about the beautiful and unruly daughter of the proud and hot-tempered starost of Kalisz Castle - Dorotka and the poor shoemaker Marcinek, whose love ended tragically, namely, the angry father ordered his beloved daughter to be walled up alive in the tower.

The Lipski Palace in Lewków is one of the earliest examples of classicist architecture in Wielkopolska, built in the late 18th century according to the design of Jan Kamsetzer. The building impresses with its harmonious shape, rotunda garden hall and rich decoration - both on the elevations and in the interiors, where you can admire the illusionistic paintings of the Smuglewicz family. It is surrounded by a restored landscape park in the English style with a rosarium, pond and icehouse. Today, the palace serves as a museum and cultural centre, and thanks to its modern facilities, it is also a place for cultural events.

It was built in the late 14th or early 15th century, initially in a rectangular shape, and later rebuilt in the mid-16th century with an oblong shape. The tower, about 9.5 meters high, was part of the city's defensive walls and has served various functions over the centuries, including a warehouse and a prison. It now houses the Center of Kalisz Fairy Tales and Legends, and is named after a local legend about a girl named Dorotka.
