Monument to the priest prelate Hilary Jastak, chaplain of the Home Army and Solidarity.
It is not without reason that the priest's monument emphasizes the great bond with his native Kashubia, with the Home Army and with Solidarity. Fr. Hilary Jastak, in his long and rich in events and personal achievements life, had great merits for Kashubia and the entire Pomeranian region, with which he was associated almost all his life. Only the time of the war forced him to take refuge in Mazovia in order to save his life from German criminals. It was then that he joined the Home Army. After the war, he became a defender of fundamental values in the homeland enslaved by the communists. Despite persecution during the Stalinist period and in the following years, he steadfastly remained in love for God, Honor and the Fatherland

Hilary Jastak was born in 1914 in Kościerzyna as one of sixteen children of Jakub and Maria Jastak. He graduated from the gymnasium in Chełmno in 1934 and went to the Theological Seminary in Pelplin, which educated priests of the Chełmno diocese. After the outbreak of World War II, he and his family were relocated to the territory of the General Government. He graduated from the underground at the Metropolitan Seminary in Warsaw. In 1941 he was ordained a priest. He made contact with the Catholic, secret independence organization "Cross and Sword". He taught Latin and German in secret classes, was a chaplain of the Home Army, he looked after scouts from the Gray Ranks. In 1945 he returned to Pomerania.
