The New Synagogue of Ostrów Wielkopolski was built from 1857 to 1860 in the Moorish style. The synagogue was intended to replace the old synagogue, which had become too small for the city's Jewish community. Quite preserved during the Second World War, the building has since been restored for many artistic and educational purposes.
The Synagogue in Kępno is an Ashkenazi synagogue built in 1815 by architects Fryderyk Wilhelm Scheffler and Karol Fryderyk Scheffler. The synagogue was restored in 1893 and in 1924. This Neo-Classical brick building is now abandoned.
The Church of Our Lady of Czestochowa was built between 1765 and 1767 as a protestant church. It was erected on an octagonal plan. On the east side, under the sacristy, there is a burial crypt. Inside there is the high altar, made around 1765, sculptures of St. John the Baptist and Moses from the 18th century and a bas-relief depicting the Last Supper in Renaissance style.
The Synagogue in Oleśnica was first mentioned in 1417. In use until 1535, this brick building in the Gothic style now serves as a church.
