Kalisz Pomorski, Small town in West Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

Kalisz Pomorski extends across 11.89 square kilometers of northwestern Poland, with Młyńskie Lake enhancing the municipal landscape at an elevation of 115 meters.

The settlement originated from a Slavic fortified settlement in the 8th century and received its name when Duke Przemysł I brought settlers from the city of Kalisz.

The Our Lady Queen of Poland church stands as a central religious monument, reflecting the strong Catholic traditions of the local community.

The town maintains direct administrative connections with three German partner cities: Kaltenkirchen, Torgelow, and Putlitz, facilitating international cooperation and cultural exchange.

From 1944 to 1945, the location housed a subcamp of Ravensbrück concentration camp, where between 500 and 1,000 prisoners were detained.
