The seat of Pomeranian princes of the Gryfit dynasty. Currently, the castle is the Museum of Central Pomerania. The facility has the only permanent exhibition of artistic works of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz - Witkacy in Poland and in the world. Exhibits presenting the history of Pomerania, the history of the Gryfit dynasty and the culture of the local population and settlers who arrived after the war were also prepared for visitors.
The Gothic castle was built in the first half XVI century during the reign of Prince Bogusław X the Great. At the end of the 16th century, the seat was rebuilt into a three-storey building in the Renaissance style.
After the death of the last prince of the Gryfit family, Bogusław XIV, the castle was slowly devastated. Frederick Wilhelm I, King of Prussia, ordered that the preserved equipment, valuables and works of art be taken to Berlin. The building was transformed into military barracks and then served as a warehouse. It was not until after World War II that the castle was completely renovated.
