The town hall is located in the middle of the Market Square and was built in 1840 on the foundations of an earlier one. The seat of the Civil Registry Office and the Władysław Golus Regional Museum. It is a two-story building erected on a rectangular plan, with an attic and basements. It is covered with a hipped roof made of red tiles. Cornices separate the floors from the outside. On the ridge of the roof there is a turret with a clock, topped with a tented roof with a spire. Barrel vaults have been preserved inside the town hall.

Bałczyna (often called Bełczyna) is the highest elevation of the Ostrzeszowskie Hills, rising to 278 m above sea level. It is a popular viewing point, from which, in good weather, you can even see the chimneys of the Bełchatów Power Plant. At the top, there is a monument to soldiers from 1939 and a stone table with the cardinal directions, which makes this place an attractive destination for trips. Over the years, Bełczyna has served as a place for rest, skiing, motocross and paragliding. There are three trails leading to the hill, including the Transwielkopolska Bicycle Route - it is worth having an MTB, because the terrain can be varied.
