== Landmarks ==
The city borders on Chełmska Hill ({{langx|pl|Góra Chełmska}}), a site of [[pagan]] worship in prehistory, and upon which is now built the tower "sanctuary of the covenant", which was consecrated by [[Pope John Paul II]] in 1991, and is currently a pilgrimage site. Also an observation tower is located on the hill. At the entrance to the sanctuary there is a monument dedicated to the Polish [[November Uprising|November insurgents]] of 1831, who, imprisoned by Prussian authorities, built a road connecting Koszalin with nearby [[Sianów]].<ref>Laskowski, p. 46-47</ref>
