The town features several tourist attractions, including an open-air museum featuring traditional Kashubian wooden houses, an upside-down house, and the longest wooden plank in the world (measuring 38.83 meters).[2] The upside-down house, commissioned by Daniel Czapiewski, was completed in 2007 and was intended as a visual metaphor for Poland's communist era.[3]
