The Chapel of the Holy Spirit was built of granite blocks, likely in the late 13th century. A hospital once adjoined it. It was rebuilt in the early 15th century, and further alterations took place in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1945, the building was destroyed. Between 1967 and 1969, the chapel was rebuilt to house the public library. A Gothic portal and several details, including a frieze of rosettes and bas-reliefs depicting animal silhouettes, have been preserved on the northern façade.

Since August 2013, the chapel has housed the Department of Tradition – the "Museum of the Pyrzyce Region" of the Pyrzyce Public Library. It houses collections related to the history of the Pyrzyce Region.

The chapel, part of the former Holy Spirit Hospital, was built in the early 14th century and dismantled and rebuilt in the 15th century. The new building was longer than the previous one, and a tower was added to its western elevation. The hospital operated until the early 17th century, and was destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. Only the church was rebuilt. In 1784, the tower was struck by lightning, caught fire and collapsed. It was never rebuilt. In the 19th century, the building was adapted as a hospital, later as a warehouse, and at the end of the century it became a church again. During World War II, the church was destroyed, and after being rebuilt, it became a library.
