A 27-meter water tower built in the late 1930s, designed by city architect Antoni Karolak as part of Kalisz's municipal waterworks system established from 1935. After being decommissioned in the 1960s, the tower stood abandoned until sculptor and cultural animator Bogdan Jarecki initiated its transformation into an art space. Since 1987 it has operated as the Plastic Arts Culture Center "Wieża Ciśnień," now bearing Jarecki's name.

The Cathedral Church of St. Nicholas is the oldest church in Kalisz, built between 1253 and 1257, funded by Duke Bolesław the Pious and his wife, Blessed Jolanta. From 1358 to 1810, it belonged to the order of Lateran canons, brought to Kalisz by Casimir the Great from the Sieradz massacre. In 1448, they built a monastery next to the church, currently used as a parish house. The church and former monastery are Gothic, with later additions. Among the church's interesting furnishings, noteworthy are the polychrome and stained glass windows in the Chapel of Our Lady of Consolation, created by Włodzimierz Tetmajer in 1909.
