17th century funeral orations, as sources of didactic character, include numerous threads referring to the piety of baroque damsels. They are full of examples describing religiousness of women of virtually all ages and marital statuses (married, single and widowed). According to the model propagated by the clergy, a zealous catholic woman was supposed to be devoted to God and persistent in her belief. She should also worship Mary the Mother of God, Jesus and saint patrons, which was reflected in her participation in religious confraternities. It was also important that she attended religious services and pilgrimages as well as respected fasting periods and received holy sacraments. On every day basis, it was suggested that a God fearing Christian should live by the rules of the Decalogue, read religious books and contemplate the moment of death and prepare to it by reading ars bene moriendi guides. Charity work and generous donations to churches, monasteries, schools and homeless shelters were also important. Preachers also emphasised the personality features of a model catholic woman. Hence it was suggested that she should be hard working, reasonable, quiet and modest. Although clergymen emphasised deep and fervent religiousness of women whom they were describing in their sermons, we are actually unable to fully confirm the accuracy of their words. Therefore, it must be assumed that, on the one hand, this religiousness and piety was supposed to constitute an ideal role model, on the other hand, however, it resulted from the fear which accompanied people almost everywhere in turbulent times of the 17th century.

In 1969 in Choszczno, a hoard of post-medieval coins was discovered. The coins had been placed in a pottery vessel, which, after its extraction from the ground was smashed and the coins were divided between the finders and witnesses. Employees of the Museum of Western Pomerania (now the National Museum in Szczecin) probably recovered all the scattered coins. In total, in the collection of the Department of Numismatics there are 3266 coins, including ones of Philip Julius (1584–1626), Francis I (1589–1620), Ulrich I (1589–1622), Bogislaw XIV (1580–1637) and Charles X Gustav (1654–1660). Almost 98% of the coins are double shillings minted by the rulers of the Duchy of Pomerania from the House of Griffins and the king of Sweden, Charles X Gustav.
