In front of the main entrance on a small hill there is a bronze sphere covered with bas-reliefs featuring a magic animal world: a lion, a crocodile, a dear, a turtle, an eagle, a falcon and other illustrations: for example a knight. There are 30 illustrations altogether. The sphere is an illustration of the legend of Jerzy Samp: " The gifts from Stolem"On the ground floor in the corridor of the mall one can feel the athmosphere of the old town street. On the walls one can see well-chosen decorations: heraldic arms, a medallion, putti in bas-reliefs, mascarones, decorative keystones. All of them are imitations of the architectonic elements from the Old Town in Gdańsk. On the first floor inside of a brick arch among planets there is a parrot shimmering with its golden brown feathers. This is a illustration of the legend "The parrot of Master Hevelius" of Jerzy Samp.18 metres over the floor on a small patio three lions stand on three consoles, one of them has got wings.
