During the early medieval tribal period „Święta Góra” („Sacred mountain” 156 m above sea level) was a sacred place for the Pomeranians. The spring which is located on the eastern slope of the mountain was a place of worship, the archaeological excavations unearthed remains of a ceremonial place on top of the mountain as well. The first Christian chapel was build here in 12th century.
