The water tower was completed in 1926 according to the design by Władysław Horodecki. The construction was financed by a loan taken from the New York company „Ulen & Co.”, as part of an agreement concerning the financing of investments in four Polish cities (Częstochowa, Lublin, Radom, and Sosnowiec) aimed at modernizing infrastructure and improving sanitary and health standards. The tower was intended to be part of the water and sewage system of Piotrków Trybunalski, which is why it was located in the very center of the city on Słowackiego street, right next to the railway station. In the mid-1990s, a radio transmitter was placed on it. Until May 20, 2013, the Polsat television company had a transmitter on the tower. In mid-2008, the exterior of the Water Tower was renovated as part of the Trail of Many Cultures project.

Over the centuries of their presence in Witów, the Norbertines left behind numerous valuable monuments of material art. Without a doubt, one of them is the roadside figure of St. John of Nepomuk, located in Witów Kolonia, near the Strawa River. It was built in 1781, and its founder was the penultimate abbot of the Witów congregation, Eustachy Suchecki (1767-1603). The sandstone figure of St. John of Nepomuk, dressed in priestly attire, holding a cross with the image of Christ in both hands, is located on a pedestal topped with a multi-step, profiled cornice. On the quadrangular pedestal made of sandstone, differentiated by panels, there is a marble slab with a Latin inscription, translated as: In honor of the Patron of God John of Nepomuk, Eustachy Suchecki, the abbot of the Norbertines of Witów, founded it. Year of Our Lord 1781, May 5 By decision of April 8, 1971, reference number: KI. IV-660/47/71, the building was entered into the register of monuments as having great historical and artistic value, which is why it is subject to special legal protection.

Neo-Gothic, brick chapel, built in 1886–1887 on the site of an older wooden church. The parish priest at the time was Fr. Alojzy Gerlach, who obtained permission from the authorities to rebuild it – when he died in 1893, he was buried in St. Anne's Church. The main initiator and benefactor of the construction of the new brick church of St. Anne was Filip Łaski. In 1906, a new zinc roof was put on the chapel, and the interior was painted. In 1948, a resolution was passed recognizing the "Chapel of St. Anne in Wolbórz" as a historic monument. The Social Committee for the Construction of Alleys at the parish cemetery in Wolbórz collects money for the renovation of the chapel, its sound system and the revitalization of the alleys. In recent years, it has led to the renovation of part of the collapsed cemetery wall. The oldest tombstones in the cemetery date from the 19th century.

It is an originally Gothic church (15th century), expanded in the 16th century, rebuilt in 1766 by Franciszek Placidi. The wooden altars contain paintings by Franciszek Smuglewicz. In 1544, Bishop Piotr Gamrat raised the church to the dignity of a collegiate church, at the same time erecting a collegiate chapter at it, approved by Pope Paul III in 1546. In 1819, the collegiate church was abolished by decision of the tsarist authorities. On July 6, 2008, the Wolbork church regained the dignity of a collegiate church by decree of the archbishop, the metropolitan of Łódź, Władysław Ziółek. In 2015, on the occasion of the 950th anniversary of the city, the installation of the city bugle call was launched on the tower.

The courthouse was built according to various designs between 1905 and 1909 according to the design of the provincial architect Feliks Nowicki in a style described as eclectic, Art Nouveau or neoclassical. During World War I, in 1914 during the fighting for the city, a field hospital was set up in its interior. After the end of World War II, the courthouse first housed the Municipal National Council, and then, after the establishment of the Piotrków Trybunalski Voivodeship in 1975, the building was the seat of the Voivodeship Office. Since 1989, it has once again served as a court. The eastern wing of the building with an entrance from Toruńska Street houses the State Archives established in 1919. The building is entered in the register of monuments under the number 278 of 2.04.1979. It is also in the municipal register of monuments of the city of Piotrków Trybunalski.
