The town hall in Chojna stands out with its late Gothic brick facade. After its destruction in 1945, it was rebuilt preserving its historical form and today, together with St. Mary's Church, it forms the most characteristic fragment of the center.

The Barnkowska Gate is one of the two preserved medieval gates of Chojna. The name comes from the former village of Barnkowo, to which the road leading out of the city from here led. The first gate was built at the beginning of the 14th century, later it was rebuilt from brick and expanded until the 16th century.

Monument to John Paul II in the square by St. Mary's Church. Incidentally, it's a good spot to see the immensity of this temple up close.

The gate has a second name - Myśliborska. It formed the entrance to the city from the east. Built of brick, on a square plan, on a stone base (the base is most likely a remnant of an older stone structure).

Tourists are drawn here like a magnet by three attractions: a viewpoint overlooking the spectacular panorama of the Oder River and its western bank, the massive stone Generation Table inscribed with the first verse of the then German national anthem (the current German national anthem is only the third stanza of "Lied der Deutschen" by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben, set to music by Joseph Haydn), "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles," and more than a dozen commemorative stones. Since the early 1930s, erratic boulders, previously used as boundary markers, have been placed on the hill. The names of prominent German-speaking poets, musicians, politicians, theologians, and military figures have been engraved on them. With the rise of Nazism in Germany, icons of German nationalism were also commemorated: a stone dedicated to Adolf Hitler and an oak cross honoring Albert Leo Schlageter. The local lapidarium is a special testimony to the history of the park, which until 1945 lay within the borders of Germany.

An unusual and popular tourist spot. First of all, there are wonderful views of the Oder River. There is also a large stone Table of Generations and an inscription "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles", once the first verse of the German national anthem. In addition, there is also a shelter where you can rest.
