(also Portowa, Wodna, Rzeczna, Herbowa) It was built at the beginning of the 15th century. Originally, two free-standing towers were connected by a wooden bridge, which was later replaced by a brick building with a passage. The name of the gate refers to the mill that stood on the river bank near the gate until the mid-18th century. The Mill Gate has been a symbol of the city for centuries, and its silhouette was depicted on seals and was an element of the city's former coat of arms. The Mill Gate is unique on a European scale.

It was built in several stages from the 15th century to the 17th century. It had the most extensive foregate, consisting of a semicircular barbican protruding in front of the ramparts and defensive walls, a front gate and an inner gate. It was demolished in 1780. During World War II, the gables and roof were destroyed, and their reconstruction began in 1960. The name of the gate refers to the embankment that existed around the former castellan stronghold before the construction of the walls.

The town hall was built from the mid-13th century. It is the largest medieval structure of this type in Pomerania. The gables are decorated with elaborate net tracery. The great fire of 1635 destroyed the city archives along with the City Hall. After this cataclysm, the eastern gable of the Town Hall was built. At the end of the 19th century, Gothic elements were restored to the building and new details were added. The town hall was destroyed again in 1945. Rebuilt between 1948 and 1961, it is the seat of the City Council and the City Hall.

Church of Saints Peter and Paul - Orthodox parish church in Stargard. A neo-Gothic church built in 1889–1890 of red brick. From its establishment on September 17, 1890 until the city was occupied by the Red Army, it belonged to the Evangelical Reformed community and was called Christ (Christuskirche). After the war, until 1951, the church was used by Catholics. In 1953, the temple was handed over to the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church. At the end of 2007, the first major renovation of the church after World War II began, which was completed in the fall of 2012. The church is unique in Pomerania because already during its construction it was given some features typical of eastern religious architecture, although it was intended for Protestants. The temple was built on a Greek cross plan with two slender octagonal towers. The lower, unfinished eastern tower has a pyramidal dome, slightly towering above the roof, and the full western tower is covered with an octagonal dome and measures 33 m. The building's façade is decorated with plant motifs and wimpergs.
