Until 1939, it housed the Mother and Child Care Center and the headquarters of the "Rzelec" (Shooter). After 1945, the "Zeglarz" cinema (Historisches Gebäude: Erbaut um 1889, ersetzte sie Holzkirchen, die bei den Stadtbränden von 1770 und 1817 niedergebrannt waren.

The Rynek is not the most restful place, as it is effectively a roundabout for cars. Still there are some benches, icream parlour, Żabka and Lewiatan here if you need supplies. If you need a quieter place, head towards the castle, there you can find a quiet rest area overlooking the river.

The bridge over the Warta River in Sieraków was built in the 15th century. It was a wooden structure that was repeatedly destroyed during spring floods or wars and then rebuilt. Only in the 1970s was the wooden bridge replaced by a reinforced concrete one that still exists today.

The "Heroic Sons of the Sierakowska Land" monument was unveiled on May 1, 1967. It has the form of a soaring obelisk made of stone blocks with a metal shield with an eagle at the top. On its lower element on the north side there is an image of an insurgent cross. Urns with soil taken from the battlefields during the Greater Poland Uprising in the Sierakowska Land were embedded in the monument.

A large, green square in the very center of the city. In the streets adjacent to the market square there are historic ridge houses, and in the middle of it there is the Monument to the Sons of the Sieraków Land.
