A beautiful and charming place.

The building was designed by Marian Lalewicz, a prominent architect of the neoclassical era, whose work included the State Agricultural Bank building in Warsaw. Before the current building was constructed, the site housed the headquarters of the Society of Cyclists, and even before that, the Russian State Bank.

The theatre has occupied four different buildings throughout its history: the original 1801 wooden structure collapsed after 15 years; its 1830s replacement burned in an 1858 city fire; the neo-Renaissance building erected in 1896–1900 was deliberately destroyed by German forces during the burning of Kalisz in 1914.

The Wojciech Bogusławski Theatre in Kalisz, founded in 1801 by the "father of Polish theatre" Wojciech Bogusławski, is one of the three oldest continuously operating drama theatres in Poland and holds the status of an honorary national stage. The current building, designed by architect Czesław Przybylski, was constructed between 1920 and 1936 and has been a listed historic monument since 1979. Since 1961, the theatre has hosted the annual Kalisz Theatre Meetings festival.

The Wojciech Bogusławski Theatre in Kalisz is one of the oldest theatre venues in Poland, with the city's theatrical traditions dating back to the early 19th century. The current theatre building was constructed between 1920 and 1936 and is located at Wojciech Bogusławski Square on the Prosna River. Since 1936, it has been named after Wojciech Bogusławski. The theatre serves as Kalisz's main theatre institution, presenting classical and contemporary repertoires and organizing the Kalisz Theatre Meetings, one of the most important theatre festivals in the country, since 1961. The building is an architectural monument and a key element of the city's cultural life.

The University of Kalisz Rector's Office building is located in the historic former Polish Bank building on Wojciech Bogusławski Square in Kalisz. Built between 1924 and 1926 in the neoclassical style, the building served as a bank for decades. After the bank's closure, it fell into disuse and was then transferred to the university and undergone a thorough revitalization. Following the completion of the renovation in 2025, it became the representative seat of the University of Kalisz authorities, housing the Rector's office, administration, and conference rooms. The building is an example of the successful adaptation of a historic building to academic functions and is one of the city's most important public buildings.

The museum is open Tuesday - Sunday 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., and in July and August Tuesday - Friday 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Saturday - Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. https://mnp.art.pl/profile/wizyta-muzeum-zamek-w-goluchowie

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.
