Barlinek offers a narrow but varied set of monuments: each shows a different material and a different era. Other places in town are on things to do in Barlinek, and buildings from other towns of the region in architecture in West Pomerania.

Which architectural styles can you see in Barlinek?

The church of the Immaculate Heart is older than the rest; it began as a Romanesque building of granite blocks. It stands at Paderewskiego 3. Today's Gothic with a star vault is the result of rebuilding after the fire of 1852.

The Dormition church is neo-Gothic, a brick building of 1873 at number 7 on Górna, formerly Protestant and consecrated again after renovation in 2021. The youngest is St Boniface's of 1923, also brick, with an altar triptych that survives. Its address is Świętego Bonifacego 13. Beyond the monuments, the town can be explored through a text on Emanuel Lasker and the lake, which opens the way to a walk.
