The green area is called John Paul's II Park. There were town houses here until 1945, but they were demolished in the 1960s. A park was created. The John Paul II monument has stood here since 2000. Columnar oaks, also known as pyramid oaks, grow on both sides. They are rare here and are therefore protected.

The neo-Gothic Catholic church was donated by Justyna Timnik, the widow of Gustav, the merchant and mayor of Mrągowo, on what was then Koenigsberger Street. Its ceremonial consecration took place by Fr. Rudolf Borowski on October 28, 1860. On July 30, 1870 it became an independent parish. In 1892-96 the side aisles, a tower and part of the sacristy were added. Andrzej Thiel dedicated the Church of St. Adalbert and the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The last expansion took place in the first years of the 20th century. After its completion on October 3, 1910, it was consecrated by Bishop Augustine Bludau.
