Browkin's Theorem

For every Positive Integer $n$, there exists a Square in the plane with exactly $n$ Lattice Points in its interior. This was extended by Schinzel and Kulikowski to all plane figures of a given shape. The generalization of the Square in 2-D to the Cube in 3-D was also proved by Browkin.
