Amfiteatr im. Ignacego Jana Paderewskiego
The Ignacy Jan Paderewski Amphitheatre in Koszalin is one of the largest of its kind in Poland. It was built on a spectacular scale in the years 1973-75. The immediate impetus for the idea of ​​building the amphitheatre was a great success of Polish Choirs Festival, which have taken place in Koszalin since 1970. The auditorium with a stage and backstage was designed by the architects from Koszalin: Marian Czerner and Andrzej Katzer. The bold and beautiful coping of the whole building is a huge, arched roof built by prof. Jan Filipkowski on the occasion of the State Central Harvest Festival.
The amphitheatre is used in the summer as an entertainment and cultural centre. The auditorium is roofed and can accommodate 4,500 spectators. In the summer months, there are many musical concerts organised in the amphitheatre. Since 1994, a major event has been the Summer Cabaret Festival taking place annually in July, hosted by the Koń Polski cabaret from Koszalin; and current favourites of the audience tend to be among the guests. Moreover, the Koszalin Philharmonic Orchestra organises their performances and concerts on the stage of the amphitheatre during the summer season. Films are screened at the Summer Cinema after dark, and entry is usually free of charge.
In addition, since its construction, the amphitheatre has been the place where concerts of World Festival of Polish Choirs are held.

Domek Kata [the Executioner’s House]
Domek Kata on 3 Grodzka Street is a Gothic burgher’s house erected in the 15th century on a trapezium plan, which was motivated by a curved line of the town walls in that place, most probably using a fragment of a former tower. The preserved front façade, exposed under the plaster bewitches with its Gothic architecture – with a lanceted entrance and blind windows on the ground floor, a corner buttress, and pilaster strips reaching the middle of the first floor. Nowadays, the building is a seat of the Teatr Propozycji “Dialog” Association, promoting contemporary one-person plays. It is also a place of recitation shows and other cultural events. In the past, the house was inhabited by an executioner, hired to work full-time since 1464, when the town council bought out the right of judging and sentencing from the bishop. Minor demeanours were punishable by lashing, pillory, or being shackled in the stocks. Serious crimes were punished with death inflicted in various manners. People who murdered their parents were packed into a sack and drowned, witches were burnt at the stake, people guilty of other crimes were hanged and beheaded. Executions took place in two places – depending on the birth of a convict – on the Hangmen’s Hill on Dąbrowskiego Street (behind an open-air heritage park), where gallows were located, or temporarily on the Old Town market square for those of noble birth. The profession of an executioner remained in a family and was handed down from a father to his son. The last execution was carried out in 1893, but the executioner’s family still lived in the house in the interwar period. In the Middle Ages, executions were also a show for the masses, and the executioner were received decent remuneration for his work. In a peculiar price list of executioner’s services, much could have been earned for beheading or burning a convict – as many as 10 florins. A half of this amount was for tortures, including a breaking wheel torture, and for burial of suicides (a prejudice did not allow people to touch the corpse). An ordinary pillory punishment, lashing, or putting somebody in the stocks cost the municipal treasury 9 shillings. A peculiar punishment awaited women guilty of slander. They had to stand in front of a church during an entire service with a heavy sack of rocks. This was reportedly a moderately effective remedy for gossip.

St. Gertrude's Chapel
The chapel was built in Koszalin in 1383 outside the city walls. Originally, it served as a hospital chapel, and then - the cemetery. I was converted into the ammunition depot of the local garrison (changing the roof, walled window openings, dismantling the tower) in 1735. Religious functions of the chapel were restored at the beginning of the twentieth century, it was renovated and its earlier appearance was recreated. It served as a warehouse after World War II. It also housed Mała Scena Bałtyckiego Teatru Dramatycznego [the Small Stage of the Baltic Drama Theatre]. A bookstore, among other things, was there for some time. The chapel was handed over to the Lutheran Parish Church of Jesus the Good Shepherd in Koszalin and still functions as a sacred place. Approx. 70 people can be accommodated during the services said in Polish and German. A parish choir also functions in a church.
The monument, located near the theatre, is marked by the influence of Scandinavian architecture. The small octagonal building is covered with a dome in the shape of an even-armed star.

The Main Post Office
It is the most beautiful neo-Gothic building in Koszalin. Various sources frequently describe its historic architecture as eclectic, which is quite right, because the façade contains not only neo-Gothic elements. However, red brick used as a building material, specially profiled for numerous details, three stepped gables at the top of the front façade, and traceries in arched window lintels on the third floor definitely indicate the neo-Gothic style. The building was built in the years 1884–1908 on the initiative of Bergmann, the then director of the Head Management of the Post Office in Koszalin. The layout of the entire Wolności Square along with its surroundings was already made in 1836, while the seat of the post office and a roadhouse for stagecoaches were built in 1858. Carrying letters and parcel by stagecoaches was superseded by railway with its new connections that were opened at that time. The first train came in Koszalin from Stargard Szczeciński on June 1st, 1859. The last horse-drawn stagecoach line was closed in 1911.

The Pomeranian Dukes Park
The origins of the Pomeranian Dukes Park can be traced back to the reign of Prince Bogusław X. A castle garden surrounding the pond was created then, right at the foot of the rampart. The park was built in stages; it was built, repaired and other parts were added for over 400 years.
Stara Promenada [The Old Promenade] is considered to be the oldest part of the park. Its construction started in 1602 and was completed in 1817, and this date is officially considered to be the beginning of the park. The name of Stara Promenada functioned until the 1950s when the park was officially named Przyjaźni Polsko-Radzieckiej Park. When after 1989 the name ceased to function, it was called simply the municipal park.
The park is divided into two parts - "A" - the northern part of the green belt with Stara Promenada, and part "B" - the ​​southern area, attached to the original park in later years.
Part "A" is an area of about the size of 6.7 ha, which was built in two stages: 1602-1817 and 1933-1934, when works to develop the land were finished for good.
A large part of the park i made up of well-kept lawns with flowerbeds, mainly rose ones. Trees do not grow in large groups, they occur in isolation or as rows along the alleys. These are usually very old specimens that have been declared natural monuments. The old sycamore draws the most attention, it is the remains of the castle garden. It is commonly called 'the witches' tree'. Its age is estimated at more than 300 years, and the circumference is up to 500 cm. Beeches, birches, oaks, alders and willows are equally noteworthy. Their falling leaves give incredible charm to the shores of the river. Besides native trees, the park has a whole range of exotic trees such as ginkgo biloba, London plane, Sawara cypress, magnolia shrub, Amur cork tree, American tulip tree and others. There is also a very large variety of the species of shrubs. In total, over 120 species of plants grow in the park.
Thanks to these natural conditions, the park is home to many animals, mostly birds. It is worth mentioning that the park became a refuge for water birds because of its pond and the river flowing nearby. In 1934 an island, which was given the name of 'Swan Island,' was created on the pond. Every year a couple of swans rear their offspring there.
That pond is the main spot in the park (with an area of 1.5 hectares) and much of the infrastructure is located around it. The main alleys lead to its shores, along which benches are placed. There two bridges over the river, and three sculptures nearby. There are two fountains in the park. The first of them, a prewar - like, has been highlighted. The lights are switched on every day from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.
A part of the park "B" used to be called Janka Sawicka Park. It is smaller than the "A" one because it covers an area of 3.5 hectares. There are over 90 tree and shrub species in the area. A great deal of them such as Babylon willow and eastern black walnut are monumental specimens. Its composition resembles part "A" - clearings cut by wooded alleys dominate there.
The entire park complex is surrounded by numerous institutions and public utility facilities. You can find there service and catering facilities like coffee shops, restaurants, the post office and the police station. There are also two theatres in close proximity: Teatr Propozycji Dialog named after Henryka Rodkiewicz and the Baltic Dramatic Theatre named after Juliusz Słowacki. Part "A" borders in the north the equally noteworthy Tadeusz Kościuszko Park, and part "B" - the KS Bałtyk stadium.
The park is very well maintained, renovations are constantly carried out. Due to its central location and proximity to numerous historic buildings and utility facilities, it is the most visited park by locals and tourists in whole Koszalin.
