Royal Gate
Completed in 1728, the gate was an element of city fortifications built by the Prussians. Previously occupied by an art gallery, the gate now serves as a coffee house.
The Royal Gate is one of the two city gates that have survived to our times from the extensive line of fortifications in Szczecin. The building was erected in the years 1725-1728 according to the design of the Dutch architect Gerhard van Wallrawe. The Royal Gate - previously known as the "Anklamer Tor" - was erected on the site of the former Mill Gate. This name was in force until 1840, from 1841 the gate is called the Royal Gate in honor of its founder, King Frederick William I.
As in the case of Brama Portowa, the walls of the buildings are decorated with sculptures by Bartholome Damarat. On the gate we will find, among others Mars with sword and shield and Hercules with club and lion skin. Above the passage there is a panoply with a shield and a Prussian eagle, the whole is surrounded by a chain of the Order of the Black Eagle, and at the top there is a crown. The King's Gate is decorated with carved elements of weapons, armor, shields and banners.
During the Second World War, for fear of damage, the decorations were dismantled, hidden in the forest, and the building was planted with ivy. Thanks to this, the object was not damaged. The decorations hidden in the Arkona Forest were found in 1957 and reinstalled on the gate.
In 1994, the facility was modernized, in the 1990s the building housed an art gallery, and since 2000, the Gateway Jazz Cafe has been operating at the gate.
The building was entered on the provincial list of monuments in June 1954

Angel’s Fort
Built in the 1850s, originally as an observation point and artillery position of Fortress Świnoujście, Angel’s Fort is styled and named after Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome. The fort currently serves as an exhibition space and a cultural venue.
The Angel's Fort was built in the years 1854-1858, during the reign of the Prussian king Frederyk Wilhelm IV, as an artillery and observation point for the Świnoujście Fortress. At that time, the ground floor was manned by infantry with small arms, and two floors were used for light field artillery. Cannons and ammunition were transported upwards by ropes through oval holes in the ceilings. During World War II, the fort was rebuilt and equipped with all available technology (electricity, central heating, radio stations, telegraph) and served as an air observation post for the German forces. After the war, it was taken over by the Russians. Currently, the facility is being renovated and serves not only a museum but also a cultural role for the city of Świnoujście. Music and poetry concerts are held in the fort, but also shows of traditional medieval knighthood fights. In addition, you can measure your own strength by shooting a bow, slingshot or air rifle during classes at the shooting range. n the Fort, there is also an unusual museum Viking Hall, where all the exhibits can be tried on, picked up and posed for photos. The shape of the fort (built on a regular pentagonal plan) resembles the Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome, hence its name.
Permanent exhibitions:
- exhibition of navigation equipment
- porcelain exhibition
- amber jewelery exhibition
- art glass exhibition
- exhibitions of paintings and sculptures by various authors

Former Mariackie Middle School
In the 18th century at the initiative of the King of Prussia Frederick William I a decision was made to reconstruct the school so that it had a neoclassical style. In 1805 the school was connected with the municipal middle school and Mariackie Royal Middle School was created.
Over the centuries, the building was reconstructed many times. When the Mariacki church was liquidated in 1830 a decision was made to build a new school building. It was designed by Scabell, and the construction works were completed in 1832. Two years later the town council funded organs for the school, and around the school chestnuts and maples were planted. The school library had approx. 30 thousand books and it was the best supplied library in the Pomerania Province.
Because the school was not big enough, they decided to build a new building, and when it was completed in 1869 at Mariacka Street a four-grade initial school was created, and then it was transformed into private apartments. Today there is the 9th Secondary School in the building.
Next to the school building there are remains after the Mariacki church – two spans of the cloister which connected the church with the houses of the professors.
There is a bronze board on the wall of the school with the following content: “On the 18th of May 1944 Polish soldiers of the 2nd Corps conquered Monte Cassino in the Battle of the Nations fighting for Rome. On the 40th anniversary of the battle to honour the victors the school received the following name: IX Liceum Ogólnokształcące Bohaterów Monte Cassino in Szczecin (The 9th Secondary School named after the Heroes of Monte Cassino). 18 May 1989.”
The building was included on the list of monuments of the province in January 1985.

Gerhard Fort
One of the most important historic sites in Świnoujście, named after its designer, Gerhard Cornelius. The fort was built in the mid-19th century to guard the entrance into the harbor.
Gerhard's Fort is one of the forts of the Świnoujście Fortress. Next to the lighthouse, it is one of the most important monuments of Świnoujście. It was also the most important facility guarding the entrance to the port in Świnoujście. It is a well-preserved fortress that was built in the years 1848-1859. The initiator of the construction and the creator of the fort design was Gerhard Cornelius van Wallrave, an architect famous in the 18th century. He was, inter alia, the author of the project for the expansion of the fortress in Kłodzko. In his honor, the eastern fort was called Fort Gerhard.
The fort is shaped like an oval two-story redoubt. The redoubt had two wings and a drawbridge leading through the moat to the main entrance, as well as an internal courtyard and three towers. Due to its location, the port was exposed to direct, regular attacks by the enemy. The fort was constantly expanded. In 1881, two caponiers were added, i.e. earth structures erected across the moat used for firing and defending the entrance to the fort. At the southern and northern ends of the fort, two bunkers were erected, connected by an underground tunnel with the fort's courtyard. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, a narrow-gauge railway and telegraph communication were brought to the fort.
After the war, the fort was handed over to the city. At first, warehouses were organized there. Later, the fort was abandoned. Changes took place in 2001. The fort was leased by a group of enthusiasts who opened its doors to visitors a few months later. One of the most interesting places was created, which is a living history lesson. Visitors to the fort will learn about the history under the watchful eye of a Prussian soldier, who shows them around the fort and, additionally, "trains" visitors, and when necessary, he will also structure them appropriately.
In 2001, the Coastal Defense Museum was established in the fort. It is the largest private facility of this type in Poland, it houses over 2,000 exhibits related to the development of the Świnoujście Fortress over the last 300 years.
In the fort, we can see: one of the best-preserved artillery benches in Europe - a series of stone and brick positions for coastal guns, 150 and 210 mm caliber, with preserved relics of various types of gun mounts; a small courtyard with casemates under the artillery gallery; ammunition and powder magazines in the west wing of the fort; two artillery stations and former firing positions for field guns on the southern rampart of the fort above the southern caponier; on the drill square, the wreck of the SDKFZ 7/2 transporter, which was pulled from the sea, near Dziwnów (Western Pomerania) in 2006.
Visiting the fort takes about 75 minutes, you need to add additional time needed to visit the museum.
There are more similar attractions waiting for lovers of military and history in Świnoujście. Three of the four forts built in the 19th century have survived to this day. All forts are open to the public.

Harbor Gate
Built in the 1720s, the Baroque gate is one of the two remaining city gates in Szczecin. It is currently the seat of the Chamber Theatre.
The Port Gate is one of the two city gates that have survived from the city's fortification line. The baroque building was erected in 1725-1727 according to the design of the Dutch architect Gerhard Cornelius van Wallrawe.
The outer walls of the monument were decorated with sculptures by the French artist Bartholome Damart. On the one hand, we find a shield with the monogram of King Frederick William, who funded the construction of the building In the upper part of the building there is a gilded inscription in Latin, which proclaims the rights of the Brandenburg State to Pomerania and Szczecin. Above the inscription there is a panorama of the city and the god of the Odra River. Even higher there is an oval shield crowned with a crown with the coat of arms of Prussia.
In the first half of the 20th century, a fountain was built in front of the gate with a Neo-Baroque statue of the goddess Amphitrite. During World War II, the decorations were dismantled and hidden in the Arkona Forest. At the end of the 1950s, the decorations were found and reinstalled on the gate.
The Port Gate was previously known as the Berlin Gate because the road through it led to Berlin. The current name was given in 1945 so that it would not be associated with a German city.
From 1976 to 2013, a Cepelia store operated inside Brama Portowa. Since 2015, the building has been the seat of a chamber theater.
Brama Portowa was entered on the provincial list of monuments in June 1954.

Hill of Hangers in Wolin

In 1979, Zygmunt Duczyński founded the student Kana Theater. Over time, the team became organizationally independent and won more renowned awards, gaining recognition at home and abroad.
Currently, the theater operates as part of the Kana Theater Center. It is made up of a group of people who love art and want to show it to the world. The center is involved in the cultural life of Szczecin and the surrounding area. Apart from theatrical performances, it organizes artistic, educational, and cultural events. Kana's actors collaborate with foreign institutions. They organize many projects to promote culture and art in the modern world. The most famous of them are the International Street Artists Festival "Binders of Culture" and the International Theater Meetings "OKNO". The theater is also a co-organizer of various local events, such as Kontrapunkt, dokumentART and Japan Now.
You can also visit Kana to experience a bit of an artistic life. Kana's Cellar is both a cafe and an art gallery, so you don't have to worry that the repertoire is not about what you are waiting for.
Kana is constantly looking for volunteers, both to co-create a specific event and to cooperate in a long time. This is a great opportunity for everyone who wants to get to know the world of theater from the inside.

Maiden Tower
Built probably around the year 1462, the Maiden Tower, also known as the Seven Cloaks Tower, is one of the landmarks and symbols of Szczecin.
The Tower of the Seven Coats, also known as the Maiden Tower, is the only tower preserved from the town fortifications. The monument was probably erected before 1462 as a two-story building. At the beginning of the 19th century, the building was not demolished like the other towers, but adapted as utility rooms. After 1850, at the top of the tower, living quarters were added and the tower became an outbuilding of the building at 910 Frauenstraße. The tower survived in this form until 1944, until the Allied bombing. The remains of the ruins of the buildings around the tower were pulled down in 1956, thus revealing the walls of the tower. In the mid-1960s, reconstruction and reconstruction of the damaged parts of the tower were undertaken.
There are two legends associated with the Maiden Tower that explain the name of the monument. The first tells about a wealthy prince who had seven daughters. He wanted to spend each of them for equally wealthy men. Unfortunately, every daughter fell in love with a poor knight. The father decided to teach his disobedient daughters a lesson and ordered them to be locked in the tower until they were wise. As a sign of objection, they had to sew black coats that they wore day and night. Months passed, then years, one day it was noticed that the food that was being inserted through the crack in the wall was not taken away.  The frightened prince ordered the walls of the tower to be torn open, when it turned out that no one was inside. Except for the hanging coats. From now on, the tower is called the Tower of the Seven Cloaks, or the Maiden Tower, and what happened to the unhappily enamored daughters of a wealthy prince? Nobody knows to this day.
The second legend tells about the court tailor of prince Bogusław X. The prince, going on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, ordered seven coats to be sewn from a very rare and expensive material. The tailor did as instructed, but he carved the coats so cleverly that he had a few scraps of cloth left. The case came to light when the prince saw a woman in the street in a dress made of the same material as his coats. It quickly turned out to be the tailor's wife. As a punishment, the dishonest craftsman was locked in the tower, which from then on bears the names mentioned above.
Two legends, unfortunately, most likely miss the real source of the name of the tower. According to historians, it was the tailors' guild that funded the construction of the facility, and they were also supposed to defend it in the event of a siege.
The Tower of Seven Coats was entered on the provincial list of monuments in June 1954.

Maritime University of Szczecin
Opened in 1947, the Maritime University continues the tradition of maritime schools in Szczecin. In 1968, the university moved to the historic building on the Chrobry Embankment.
The first building on the left is actually two buildings merged into one. The first part of today's Maritime Academy was erected in the years 1902-1905 according to the design of Emil Drews. The building with a plastered façade is decorated with vases on the top. The building was designed as the seat of the National Social Insurance Institution. The building has four wings, among which a courtyard was created. Some of the rooms were intended for offices and corporate flats. The representative staircase has survived to the present day in its original state.
The second part of the building was designed in 1912 by K. Hinckeldeyn. Its construction lasted until 1921. The red brick building has many interesting sandstone sculptures on the facade. The building was erected as the seat of the Supreme Customs Directorate. Both buildings were erected in the North German Renaissance style, and their shape was to refer to the building of the Szczecin regency located on the other side of the terraces.
The Maritime University has been operating in the buildings since 1968. At its back there is a sculpture depicting a bust of a fisherman - if we come to the academy's fence from Jarowita Street, we should see the bust. The sculpture was still in the main hall of the university in the 1960s.
The building of the Maritime University was entered on the provincial list of monuments in December 1996.
School

In the maritime economy, it is a renowned scientific unit, especially in the field of maritime traffic engineering.

Mauzoleum rodziny von Trescow

Medieval defensive walls
The original walls were built in the 14th and 15th centuries. In the 17th century, they were dismantled and then rebuilt. Sections of the walls can still be seen in the north-eastern part of Wolin.
Built in the 14th and the 15th century, the system of fortifications surrounding the town consisted of defensive walls and five bastions projecting outward from the wall. The extension of the fortifications lasted until the 17th century; then, they were pulled down and rebuilt again in 1710.
The fragments of the oldest walls are situated in the north-eastern part of the town. They are 3 metres tall and about 50 metres long. They are built of stone and characterized by a heterogeneous structure.

Mieczysław Karłowicz Philharmonic
Built in 2014, the impressive white building of the philharmonic has become an instant landmark in Szczecin. The two concert halls can accommodate 1,100 guests.
The Philharmonic Hall is a five-storey building with a two-level underground car park. Its total area is 12 734 m2. The building has 2 concert halls, one of which can accommodate approx. 900 people and the other - approx. 200 people. It is made of white pointed elements that need the external lighting of 25 000 lights. The total sum of investments amounted to over PLN 100 million. The project was co-financed by the Regional Operational Programme of the Zachodniopomorskie Voivodeship, and the author was a company from Barcelona, which was chosen as the best one out of 44 others that submitted their projects to the competition. The building contractor was Warbud, a Polish company.  The Philharmonic Hall was opened in September 2014. During the opening ceremony, Mr. Bronisław Komorowski, the President of Poland, was, among others, delivering a speech; and called the Philharmonic a symbol of Polish freedom. It enables concerts to be arranged on a big European level; so, despite its short history, numerous outstanding bands from our continent have been coming there. The main reason for starting the Philharmonic Hall was to improve the quality of cultural life in the region. The building is modern and yet majestic, and its erection was not unnoticed throughout Poland. The interior of the philharmonic hall is primarily impressive.

Monument to Kornel Ujejski
Kornel Ujejski was born in Podole in Beremie, but quickly moved to Lviv. He traveled a lot, thanks to which he met Juliusz Słowacki, Joahim Lelewel, and Fryderyk Chopin, with whom he made friends. Kornel Ujejski is considered an outstanding poet of romanticism and an activist for the liberation of Poland from partitions. In addition to his bust, on a beautiful monument from 1901 there is also a lyre with torn shackles, which symbolizes the superiority of poetry over captivity. There is an inscription "Chorał" next to it. It refers to one of the artist's most popular poems. The author talks about the peasant uprising in 1846 and the so-called Galician slaughter. The poem mentions fratricidal fights and the conflict between the peasants and the nobility instigated by the Austrians. One can feel regret and faith in him, saying that even though the nation is suffering from historical injustice, it still believes in God. On the back of the monument there is an inscription "Be happy my nation". The monument came to Szczecin from Warsaw, where it was transferred from the Eastern Borderlands.

Monument to those who did not return from the sea
The design of the monument was initiated by the director of PPiUR “Odra” Juliusz Hebel in the 1980s. An account has been created, collecting funds for its execution. In 1992, when cleaning works began on the square next to the Museum, it was decided to place the monument in the location. On June 24, 1993, during the Days of the Sea, a solemn unveiling took place. This monument is to honor the inhabitants of Świnoujście who were swallowed up by the sea.

Museum of Contemporary Art – branch of the National Museum in Szczecin
The building, dating back to the late 18th century, originally served as the headquarters of the Szczecin Fortress garrison. Today, it is the seat of the Szczecin Museum of Contemporary Art, showing modern art pieces from Poland and abroad.
The Museum of Contemporary Art is located in the classicist building of the former garrison headquarters of the Szczecin fortress, built in the fourth quarter of the 18th century, and repeatedly transformed in later years. It served the military authorities until the end of World War II. In the 1970s it was handed over to the National Museum in Szczecin.
In 1980, after adaptation, it became the seat of a branch of the museum related to contemporary art. Through cycles of temporary exhibitions, a program of popularizing and promoting contemporary art is implemented, based on its own collection (Polish and foreign art) and projects developed in cooperation with other institutions, organizations and artists in the country and abroad.
In addition to presenting significant phenomena in Polish art, a regional program focused on the most important creative individuals in the region of West Pomerania, the museum coordinates the international program Mare Articum, under which it organizes, among others, The Baltic Biennale of Contemporary Art.
The building is not adapted to the needs of disabled people - there is no elevator in the building. There are seven steps leading to the first exposure, without a handrail. There is one step in front of the entrance to the building.
The building was placed on the provincial list of monuments in June 1954.

Museum of Regional Traditions – branch of the National Museum in Szczecin
The Museum of Regional Traditions is located in the old residence of King Frederick William I of Prussia built in the 1720. The museum shows archaeological and ethnographic exhibitions and has a collection of old and contemporary art.
The Museum of Regional Traditions is located in the baroque Palace of the States Parliament, built in 1726–1727 at the request of the Prussian king Frederick William I. The building was designed by Gerhard Cornelius de Walrave (1692–1773), the author of the famous fortress in Kłodzko and the Szczecin fortifications. The palace served as a meeting place for the self-government of the Pomeranian Province, as well as the king's residence during his visits to Szczecin.
Above the entrance there is the coat of arms of Pomerania, and at the top of the facade - the coat of arms of the King of Prussia against the background of panoplies (crossed elements of armament) and allegorical representations of the royal virtues: Justice (with a scale and a sword) and Prudence (a figure with a mirror and a snake). This arrangement of coats of arms was not accidental, it was supposed to reflect the subordination of Pomerania to the Kingdom of Prussia. The beauty of the building is enhanced by a rusticated façade, decorative window bands and an intricate balustrade of the balcony and external stairs. The attic space is limited by the slopes of the mansard roof. In the years 1885-1888 the building was expanded (an additional wing was built then, and the existing one on the side of Staromłyńska Street - extended).
In the interwar period, the palace was rebuilt into the seat of the Pomeranian National Museum, and after the Second World War, the building was taken over by the Museum of Western Pomerania, now the National Museum in Szczecin. Its interiors mainly show monuments of Pomeranian art, incl. a portrait of Prince Philip I painted by Lucas Cranach the Younger and wonderful jewels of Pomeranian dukes from the 16th / 17th century.
Permanent exhibitions:
1) Pomeranian Cabinet. In the mirror of coins, banknotes and seals
The exhibition is divided into three parts. In the first room there are Pomeranian seals functioning in the city space from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century. These are objects that belonged primarily to the city authorities and offices as well as craft guilds. The content displayed in the fields of the seal relates to the economic, social, political and religious life of the city.
In the second exhibition space, you can learn about the history of the issue of substitute money. The outbreak of the war and the difficulties resulting from the lack of coins led to the issuance of substitute money in the form of vouchers - the so-called notifications by unauthorized local government authorities and persons running a business. In the years 1917-1920, coins also appeared in circulation.
The third room shows the role of the coin as a means of transmitting information. The exhibition reflects the history of the coin in Pomerania from the 12th to the 19th centuries. The beginning of this road is marked by the two-sided denarii of Pomeranian dukes minted in the 12th century; medieval coinage was dominated by municipal and Kamień bishops' issues; the modern period abounds in princely circulation and occasional issues, perpetuating signs that have been known for centuries. After the extinction of the Griffin dynasty in 1637, the divided principality found itself in two different currency areas. Its eastern part was closely related to the State of Brandenburg, while in the western part, the Pomeranian coinage was continued by the Swedish rulers. The last Pomeranian issues were established in 1808 in Stralsund.
In the same room there are two treasures containing Pomeranian coins: the late medieval one from Pyrzyce and the modern one from Choszczno.
2) The golden age of Pomerania. Art at the court of Pomeranian dukes in the 16th and 17th centuries
The collection of the Szczecin museum is the largest existing collection related to the patronage activity of princes from the Gryfit dynasty. The exhibition will feature paintings, sculptures and artistic craftsmanship. One of the most valuable objects on display is the 1541 Portrait of Philip I by Lucas Cranach the Younger. A unique monument of court culture is also the family tree of the princes of Western Pomerania, a 7-meter-long painting by Cornelius Crommeny from 1598, which depicts as many as one hundred and fifty-five people from the Griffin family. An extremely important part of the exhibition are the costumes and jewels recovered from the crypt of the Szczecin castle after the Second World War, with the famous diamond-encrusted egret (ornament of the hubcap) of Prince Francis I. The exhibition also features a portrait of Prince Francis I in the marches, borrowed from the cathedral in Merseburg, showing the prince in the same costume and with the same jewels that can be seen at the exhibition.
3) Old Silver
The exhibition presents goldsmiths from the collections of the National Museum in Szczecin. The layout of the exhibition allows you to trace the fashions and trends in European goldsmithing from the Middle Ages to the Art Nouveau. Beautiful items made of precious metals also testify to the extraordinary skills of the old masters. The oldest monument is the legendary golden ring from Pęzino (Western Pomerania) from around 1200 - with the figure of a knight and an inscription that has not been deciphered so far. The oldest works presented at the exhibition also include liturgical vessels and utensils from the area of Western Pomerania. Table silver is the largest group of items on display. Among them, the rococo terrine (i.e. a vase for serving soups) by Johann Jacob Sandrart II, dating from the 1860s, stands out.
In the "Old Silver" exhibition space, you can see "Gemma" with a profile image of King Stanisław August, which was donated to the Museum by Mrs. Marion George from Berlin.

Museum of the Polish People’s Republic
Opened in 2022, the museum was the idea of a local guide Justyna Machnik. The items in the collection originate from the years 1952 to 1989 – most of them were donated by the people of Szczecin.

It is the center of the architectural complex of Wały Chrobrego (former Hakenterrasse) on the Odra river, designed by Wilhelm Meyer-Schwartau.

Palace under the Globe
The Baroque palace in Orła Białego Square is currently the seat of the Academy of Art. It is also used as the venue for exhibitions, concerts, and other cultural events open to the public.
The Palace under the Globe was built in the years 1724-1725. It was designed by Piotr de Montarque from Languedoc in France. His associate was Filip Gerlach, who was an architect and founder of numerous churches in Potsdam and Berlin. The decorations were made by Johann Georg Glum (the royal court artist). The building was made in the baroque style. The materials used in its creation were stone and brick. The present form, however, is not the original construction, as it dates from 1890.Jest dziełem Franza Wichardsa.
It is mainly characterized by an interesting avant-corps divided by four pilasters, topped with a tympanum with a globe (emerald in color) based on two lions. The globe is an element that stands out clearly from the beige facade. This is where the name of the palace comes from.  The façade also attracts attention with its stone rustics and veneers.
The palace was the seat of Filip Otton von Grumbkow (Chief President of the Pomeranian Province). The palace is famous primarily for the birth of Princess Zofia Dorota Wirtemberska, who became the Tsarina of Russia thanks to her marriage to Tsar Paul II (son of Tsarina Catherine II, also born in Szczecin).
The building was once the seat of the "National" Insurance Company. Currently, it houses the Academy of Art. At the end of 2014, in November, the renovation was completed, including refreshing the facade, as well as reconstructing the decorative ceiling in the Rector's Gallery. The total cost of the renovation of the building was PLN 19 million, and it was possible to finish it, among others. thanks to the EU funds obtained for this purpose. Thanks to them, the Academy of Arts has an extensive Mediateka, a theater and presentation room, a winter garden with a reading room and art studios. The end of the renovation had its public celebration, during which there were, among others, students of the Academy, presenting their skills in various artistic forms.  People who were at the show at the time could go inside to see the new décor of the Academy. Plac Orła Białego is an extremely representative place, and hiking tours organized by local guides often set off from the university building.

Parish Church of Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo
Parish Church of Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo is on the route from Szczecin towards Rosówek. Driving along national road no. 13, at the intersection behind the Commune Office, turn into the street, which is also the road leading to Moczyły. The church is situated next to the public transport stop for buses no. 70 and 81 running to the center of Szczecin. There is free parking in front of the main entrance to the temple grounds. The church is surrounded by a high stone and brick wall, which houses the entrance gate. Behind the wall, on the left, there is a large mission cross, and on the right, there is a church chapel - a small stone grotto, in which a statue of the Virgin Mary is hidden.
The church of the call of the Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo belongs to the deanery of Szczecin-Pomorzany, in the archdiocese of Szczecin-Kamień. Medieval Kołbaskowo, located today on the Polish-German border, has retained the character of an oval-type Slavic village with a church in the middle. The origin of the settlement is confirmed by a document in which prince Barnim I in 1243 granted the surrounding lands as an endowment to the Cistercian monastery from Szczecin. In 1286, the monastery became the property of the village, and most likely it was then that the construction of the first House of God began. Sources show that in 1304 the Szczecin Cistercians took patronage over it. The late Romanesque temple was a rectangular room and originally did not have a tower. The one, in a half-timbered structure, was added only during the modernization in the 18th century. In 1950, the church was reconsecrated, and on June 1, 1951, the Holy Trinity parish was established there.
The rather narrow interior is covered with a wooden beam ceiling. The chancel is slightly raised upwards and houses a baroque altar from the 18th century. Moreover, the church has a wooden Gothic gallery and two bells from 1600 and 1705.
Services schedule: Sun. 8:00 a.m., 12:00 a.m., Mon. 9:00 a.m., Tue.-Sat. 6:00 p.m. Indulgence: Holy Trinity.

Piwnica przy Krypcie Theater
The Piwnica przy Krypcie Theater is in the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle in Szczecin.
The "Piwnica przy Krypcie" theater was established in 2015 after the modernization of the Northern Wing of the Castle, combining the historical scenes of the Castle into one theater space: Krypta Theater (which operated from 1965) and the Piwnica przy Krypcie cabaret stage (which existed since 1990).
The new Piwnica przy Krypcie Theatre is the smallest professional and alternative stage in Szczecin, a lively and original theater. An unusual place for acting initiatives, which is a unique artistic space on a national scale. Its atmosphere is created by the intimate gothic interiors of the castle vaults, creating a unique and exceptional atmosphere of "cellar" performances. Evenings, cabaret and drama performances, concerts and recitals are held there. The artistic team consists of outstanding actors of Szczecin theaters. The theater audience can accommodate up to 50 people. Since 2015, Paweł Niczewski has been the artistic director of the theater selected from the competition.
Thanks to the presentation of a wide spectrum of theatrical genres, from drama to comedy, the repertoire of the theater is an excellent proposition for a large audience.
Theatrical improvisation is the art of creating comedy scenes (short and long theater forms) without any prior preparation. Scenes are largely based on the suggestions of the audience, which enables creating unique, interactive shows.

Polish Catholic St. Apostles Peter and Paul Parish
Polish Catholic St. Apostles Peter and Paul parish is at 4/5 Św. Piotra i Pawła Square in Szczecin.
The Church of Saint Apostles Peter and Paul in Szczecin is now a parish of the Polish Catholic Church, belonging to the Pomeranian-Greater Poland deanery of the Wrocław diocese.
On the site of today's temple, apparently already in the 6th-8th centuries, "holy oaks" grew, and the deities of the Polabian Slavs and Pomeranians (Trzygłowa) were worshiped. In 1124, Bishop Otto of Bamberg (during his Christianization mission) laid the foundation stone for the first Christian church in West Pomerania, which was built on this site. This wooden church, however, was burnt during the Danish invasion in 1189. In 1223-1237 a new brick temple was built in its place, which has survived to this day. The St. Apostles Peter and Paul Church is the only church in Szczecin that remains under the same invocation, given by Bishop Otto himself. Currently, this church is on the European Route of Brick Gothic and is entered in the register of monuments in 1955, number A-803. In 1534, the church was converted into a Protestant temple. Since 1945, the parish has belonged to the followers of the Polish Catholic Church. Until 1978, the pastor of this parish was Fr. Zdzisław Zaremba, and then Fr. Stanisław Bosy, who has been holding this position to this day.
The wooden painting on the vault by the German painter Ernst Eichner from 1703 (24 m long and 4 m wide) depicting three biblical scenes: the flood and God the Father, four Evangelists, and the sermon of Christ on the Mount and the Lamb is an undoubted advantage of the church. Another valuable exhibit is the 16th century chandeliers donated by the Habsburgs. The church also contains the largest collection of epitaph plaques from the 16th and 17th centuries. In one of the side chapels there is also a place commemorating those murdered in Oświęcim by Brzezińka. Ecumenical meetings and concerts take place in the parish, for example from the "Temple of Art" series, or jazz hymns.
The Polish Catholic Church in the Republic of Poland is the Old Catholic Church legally operating in Poland, being a member of the Utrecht Union of Old Catholic Churches, the World Council of Churches, the Conference of European Churches, and the Polish Ecumenical Council. The Church is governed by its own law, which is passed by the National Synod, which is called: the internal law of the Polish Catholic Church in the Republic of Poland.
Liturgy of the Holy Mass : Sun. 10:30 a.m., 11:00 a.m., weekly at 5:00 p.m. Office: Mon.-Fri. 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.

Pomeranian Dukes’ Castle
Dating back to 1364, the castle underwent multiple renovations and expansions over the centuries. It sustained significant damage as a result of bombing in 1944, but it was later rebuilt. The castle is now the seat of various cultural institutions.
To get to the castle, you need to choose trams or buses that will take us to "Wyszyńskiego" stop. Then you turn into Księcia Mściwoja II which will turn into Panieńska, after less than 100 meters you turn left into Kuśnierska – you are at the castle.
The Renaissance Pomeranian Dukes' Castle was erected on the castle hill and in the past, it was the seat of the Gryfit family. Even in the first half of the 12th century, there was a Slavic stronghold on the hill. In 1124, duke Warcisław I erected the first brick building, i.e., the duke's house, in the northern part of the hill. When in 1235 prince Barnim I decided to move the capital of the West Pomeranian Duchy from Usedom to Szczecin, it was decided to expand the building, but the house of Warcisław I was most likely demolished and new buildings were built in its place.
However, the origins of today's castle should be traced back to 1346, when Barnim III started constructing the so-called Stone house. The chapel of St. Otto and the so-called large house with a prison tower. The decision to build is the result of a dispute between the prince and the townspeople who chased away Barnim III's carpenters earlier. In August 1346, the bishop of Kamień Johann I and the Pomeranian prince Bogusław V decided that Barnim III could have his castle on the same rights as his ancestors, and that the inhabitants of Szczecin were to build a new house and a chapel. The new manor house was in the place of the present northern wing, and to the west of the building there was the church of St. Otto, where the first Gryfit burial crypt was. In 1428, the house was enlarged - then the southern wing was built. At the end of the fifteenth century, the so-called Big House was constructed, where Prince Bogusław X was to live together with his wife, the daughter of Kazimierz Jagiellończyk - Anna née Jagiellon. In 1491, the wedding reception of this princely couple was held within the walls of the new house. 40 years later, in 1530, a fire broke out that greatly damaged the Big House.
After the fire, a decision was made to rebuild the castle. The works lasted 7 years - during the time, the stone house was converted into a two-story building in the Renaissance style, with a gable roof and a clock tower. The eastern wing was also added. In 1573 - 1582, at the request of prince Jan Fryderyk, another reconstruction of the building was made. During the modernization, the stone house and the chapel were demolished. The courtyard was closed by the addition of the northern and western wings, and the eastern wing was also raised. The works were completed in 1583. In the 17th century, during the times of Philip II and Francis I, a fifth wing, the so-called Mint, was added thanks to which a small courtyard was created. Bogusław XIV died in 1637 - the prince did not have male heirs, so after his death the castle was taken over by the Swedes, who appeared in Pomerania in 1630. In 1705, the Queen of Poland, Katarzyna Leszczyńska, moved to the castle in Szczecin, and six years later King Stanisław Leszczyński also appeared there. In 1720, after the end of the Northern War, Szczecin was taken over by Prussia, and the castle became the seat of the garrison commander. During the Prussian period, the building was rebuilt many times to adapt it to the needs of the garrison located there. During the works, many decorations were removed, cloisters were demolished, and staircases and corridors were built up. The garrison was in the castle until 1902, after being abandoned, the building fell into disrepair. Renovation works to be restored with the sarcophagi of Pomeranian dukes. In 1948, archaeological work began in the courtyard. From 1958 to 1980, the castle was rebuilt. In 1973, the south wing and the clock tower were rebuilt, and in 1979 the clock mechanism was restored. During the works, the building was restored to its Renaissance appearance, but not much of the original equipment has survived. However, there are gothic vaults in the basement and frescoes in the clock tower. Under the northern wing are the remains of the chapel of St. Otto, the crypt discovered after the war is open to the public, and the prince's ashes were deposited in the cathedral of St. James. Currently, the castle is the seat of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship Board, the cultural center "Castle of the Pomeranian Dukes", the "Castle" cinema, which was established in 1963 and which was modernized in 2006, the Krypta Theater and the Piwnica przy Krypcie cabaret operate there. The castle also houses the Castle Opera (currently under renovation), which was moved to the castle in 1978 from the militia club at Potulicka. There are also two restaurants within the castle walls - "Zamkowa" and "Na Kuncu Korytarza". In addition, you will also find a Cultural and Tourist Information Center at the castle.
In April 2005, "Modernization and restoration of the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle" was launched. During the task, the roof and part of the façade were renovated, the open-air stage and the central heating installation in the western, Mint, and southern wings were modernized. The works were completed in September 2006, their total cost was PLN 5.3 million, including PLN 3.5 million from European Union funds.
The remaining elevations were renovated in 2006-2007, the cost of the works was PLN 2.3 million. A year later, in 2008, the roofing, lighting and sound system for the "Under the Cloister" stage were made, and, after receiving funding from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the castle was illuminated. In 2008, the Registry Office, located in the southern wing of the castle, was renovated. The wedding hall was repainted, some furniture was renovated, and the room was adapted to the needs of the disabled. Also in the same year, the rooms of Prince Barnim and Duchess Mirosława were renovated, with Gdansk furniture from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Currently, the eastern wing is available to visitors in the castle, which houses the castle museum and the gothic gallery, ticket prices are 4 zlotys for discounted, 5 zlotys for normal, 5 zlotys for normal group and 2 zlotys for school groups. In June 2012, the Hall of Witches was opened at the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle, where we will learn the history of Sydonia von Borck and the Lubinus Cabinet, we will find the Great Map of the Pomeranian Duchy with a family tree of Pomeranian dukes, made by Eilhardus Lubinus in 1610-1618.
The building was entered on the provincial list of monuments in April 1955.

Professors' houses
From the very beginning, the professors' houses were associated with the nearby collegiate church. Of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the Middle Ages, they were inhabited by the canons of the collegiate chapter, and after the Reformation carried out in the 16th century, professors of the Princely Pedagogy of Szczecin.
Originally, the facades of the buildings faced the church as the city wall ran behind them. In 1739, the modernization of the facilities began, during which the front façade was created at the rear of the buildings.
In the building at the intersection of today's Mariacka Street and Korsarzy Street the so-called economat, and at Mariacka Street was the so-called Great Auditorium. In 1831, two buildings at the corner of Mariacka Street, and in 1931 one of them was liquidated.
The complex of buildings survived the activities carried out during the Second World War. In the years 1964-1969, the remaining houses were thoroughly renovated. Today, the facade of the building is renovated. In the basements of some buildings, Gothic cellars from the 15th century have been preserved, with rib vaults. The underground has been adapted into a restaurant.
The complex of professors' houses at Żołnierza Polskiego Square was entered on the provincial list of monuments in June 1954.

Płonia River
Płonia is a river with a high class of cleanliness. It has a peaceful current and practically transparent water surface which makes it possible to admire different species of fish and plants. At the sand and silt bottom there are numerous waving water grasses. The slopes of the coast are relatively high (90 cm) and wooded. The uniqueness and gentleness of the river is caused by the number of lakes on its course. Thanks to the lakes the river rises in spring and it is not very low in summer, maintaining a rather constant coast line. Considering its natural and landscape advantages, it is compared to Drawa, one of the most beautiful kayak tracks in Europe and it actually has a lot in common with it – e.g. the amount of lakes on its course (it is enough to mention Miedwie Lake into which Płonia River falls, which is considered to be one of the largest lakes in Poland).
There is also a 65 km long kayak track on Płonia River, which starts in Niepołock (a bridge on the road from Barlinek to Płoń Lake). It is a rather easy track, however you need to be ready to carry your kayak in some fragments of the track (especially when the river flow is lower). The entire track takes approximately 6 days, however in the case of more experienced canoeists it should take not more than 3 days. Unfortunately the campsite infrastructure is rather poor which limits the possibility to organize larger events. It is worth staying in Kołbacz in order to visit Cistercian buildings. The contribution of the order to the history of the river should be mentioned here, as Cistercians moved to Kołbacz in the 12th century and for approximately 200 years they banked up the river which made the soil very fertile, as it was fertilized with river sludge. Later the river was dug through which decreased the lower part of the riverbed.
Many people appreciate peace and silence, as in the surrounding of the river you can only hear rustling reeds and the surrounding birds singing. In the waters of Płonia fishermen can catch various species of fish, especially in its lower course (below Miedwie Lake), such as eel, hub, pike, ide, whitefish, brown trout, as well as catfish and strictly protected sabanejewia aurata.

The New Town Hall, also known as the Red Town Hall, was erected in the years 1875 - 1879 according to the design of Konrad Kruhl, a councilor from Szczecin. The object refers to the Gothic style. The building was erected on a slope, on a rectangular plan. At the corners and in the central part on the side of pl. Batory there are projections. On the eastern side there is a terrace and two-flight stairs - the whole was to emphasize the representative functions of the building.
The entrance from the west is decorated with an arcaded portico and sculptures on pillars that symbolize "Industry", "Agriculture", "Sailing" and "Knowledge". The property is also decorated with balconies and turrets. Inside the building there is a rib vault. In the building we can also find the coat of arms of Szczecin from 1660, which was moved to the Red Town Hall from the old one and embedded in the wall. The building was the seat of the city board until 1945. Today, the building of the Red Town Hall houses, among others Maritime Office, Polish Chamber of Foreign Trade, Maritime Council at the Provincial Court, Design Office of Maritime Construction, Institute of Meteorology and Water Management.

Sea Fishing Museum
Created in 1974 and located in the old town hall, the museum is divided into three sections dedicated to nature, the sea, and history.
The Museum of Fishing in Świnoujście was established in 1974. The Museum is located in the historic building of the town hall. It is the oldest building in the city – a classicist two-storey building with a high roof and a little openwork tower. Over the main entrance, there is a coat of arms of the town of Świnoujście. The need for building a town hall appeared in 1765, before Świnoujście was even granted city rights. A place where city offices would have its seats and where inquirers would be seen was needed. In spite of the fact that the town was developing very quickly, Friedrich Wilhelm, King of Prussia, and the officials of Szczecin delayed the decision about the construction of the town hall. In 1772, it was decided that the town hall would be built according the design of builder master Meyer. Unfortunately, the application of amendments to the design lasted so long that the building of the town hall was not built earlier than the years 1805-1809. The new building housed the city authorities, a court, a customs office, a tax office, a fishing office, a navigation commission, and a military post. The multitude of the offices resulted in the lack of space, so it was decided that the building should be extended. These were makeshift and ill-considered actions. In the 1880s, the institutions started to move their seats out of the building. A regional museum was then set up on one of the floors. After the Second World War, the history came full circle, and the building became a seat of city authorities. As it happened before, after some time there was again a shortage of space in the building, the city authorities were moved, and the Museum of Open-Sea Fishing was opened in the building. In front of it, in a square, there is a boulder with a plaque commemorating sailors – the inscription on the plaque says: “for those who did not come back from the sea”.
The museum’s exhibition consists of three sections, each of them located on a different floor. On the ground floor, there is natural science department. In front of the entrance, visitors can see two gigantic shells of the largest mussel living in our times - Tridacna. The natural science exhibition is divided into three parts presenting life of fauna and flora of three climatic zones. We can see plants and animals of the Baltic waters, of cold Arctic waters, and of warm waters. Visitors will find a large collection of shells, plants and prepared animals. The exhibition is enriched with aquariums where visitors can watch such animals as an enormous piranha, turtles, or shark catfish. Furthermore, we can see “the Baltic gold” – an exhibition of amber.
On the first floor, there is a maritime section that exhibits fishing equipment, models of fishing boats and navigational instruments. The exhibition shows changes that took place in fishing throughout the centuries. We can see tools used by people during fishing. What is worth noticing is the exhibition “Sailing ships’ models”, where visitors can find very precisely reproduced models of historical sailing ships.
On the second floor, there is a historical section. Visitors can get familiarized with the history of Świnoujście. The exhibition includes photos showing how the town used to look like. It also shows life and customs of the inhabitants and archival documents, coins, and everyday use items from various periods of the development of the town.

Stanisław Staszic Pomeranian Library
Built in 1905 as the Szczecin Municipal Library, between 1907 and 1945 the facility was headed by Erwin Ackernecht who gathered an impressive collection of books from the Western Pomerania. Operating under its current name since 1994, the library not only borrows books, but also organizes various cultural events.
The Pomeranian Book Collection is located at Podgórna, approx. 1 km from the railway station. People traveling by car can park their vehicle in the immediate vicinity of the library (paid zone). Tram no. 3 stops nearby on Tobrucki Square. The Book Collection is close to Wyszyńskiego, which is one of the main communication routes in Szczecin.
The Book Collection was established in 1905. It owes its development to Erwin Ackernecht, who merged book collections from all over West Pomerania, placing them in the edifice of one building. Over the years, the library had been supplemented with new collections, thanks to which in 1994 its statute was changed from a Public Library to the Book Collection. The Book Collection is divided into several sections. They are the Information Center, Main Lending Room, Inter-Library Lending Room, Main Reading Room, Youth Reading Room, Pomeranian Study Room, Special Collections, Music Lending Room, German, and Economic and Legal Information Reading Room. The Book Collection hosts numerous exhibitions, lectures, and cultural events. It also publishes its own publications.

The Andrzej Kaube Regional Museum
The Andrzej Kaube Regional Museum in Wolin was established in 1966, on the initiative of Professor Władysław Filipiak, a great explorer of the Wolin region. Owing to his archaeological works, defensive walls, a port, suburbs and cemeteries of Wolin were discovered. His search confirmed historical facts known earlier form chronicles only. The museum in Wolin presents the entire fascinating history of Wolin, illustrated by numerous exhibits found in the Wolin region. The collections are presented in several rooms. The first room houses the main exhibition called “Śladami wczesnośredniowiecznego Wolina - Winety – Jomsborga” [The traces of mediaeval Wolin – Wineta – Jomsborg]. It shows the history and material culture of Wolin from the establishment of the settlement at the turn of the 6th and 7th centuries till its fall in the 12th century. The exhibition includes a mode of the town from the period of its greatest splendour, the remnants of town fortifications, a defensive system of the town, as well as objects of worship and ways of burial. Among the valuable items presented on the exhibition is a wooden, four-faced figure of Świętowit, a solar compass – the only complete compass of this type in Europe – a model of harbour, a fragment of a palisade, or a grave of a convict. In the second room, we can get familiarized with the economy of the inhabitants of Wolin. Numerous findings confirmed that the wealth of Wolin based on trade and a highly developed craft, both the production of everyday use items and the production of those luxurious objects for export. The presented crafts include: metallurgical industry and smithery, non-ferrous metal processing, glaziery, developed amber processing, and shoemaking. In the third room, the oldest traces of humans in the Wolin region are presented. We can see the oldest exhibit of the museum there – a head of a harpoon from the late Palaeolithic. Furthermore, farming tools from the Neolithic and the Bronze Age can be seen. The Bronze Age is the period from which one of the most precious exhibits of the museum comes from. The so-called bronze treasure is a collection of beautiful embellishments that belonged to a member of the Lusatian culture. The exhibit is made of bronze, weighs more than 2.5 kg, and consists of necklaces, bracelets, pins, a pauldron, a fragment of a fibula, and a knife. The treasure was buried about 950 years ago.

The Castle of the Order of Saint John
From the first half of the 13th century Swobnica and the surrounding areas belonged to the Order of the Knights Templar, the headquarters of which was in the village Rurka. After the liquidation of the order in 1312 the property of the order was taken by the Order of Saint John, who due to a conflict with the residents of Rurka and the surrounding knighthood were forced to leave the property in Rurka and move to nearby Swobnica.
Learning from their experience in Rurka, the monks decided to build a more defensive structure. In 1377 the Order of Saint John obtained their permit to build. The castle in Swobnica was built at the end of the 14th century. The brick structure was created on the plan of a square and surrounded by a 15-meter wall. Additionally next to the gate they built a 35-meter tower, which strengthened the fortifications of the property.
After the Thirty Years' War the castle was taken over by the Swedes, and in 1680 it was purchased by the wife of the Elector of Brandenburg. Upon her request the structure was rebuilt into a baroque hunting residence. During the modernization works the western segment of the defensive wall was demolished together with the gate, while in the other parts window openings were made. Despite the renovations, the new owners maintained the brick elevation and the tower to which stairs were built from the courtyard (before it was only possible to enter the tower from the shooting porch which was situated at a height of 16 meters). The castle remained in the Hohenzollerns’ hands until 1945.
After the 2nd World War the castle was robbed and then destroyed many times by “treasure hunters” who – among others – broke the chimneys in the castle. During the times of PRL [Polish People’s Republic] the castle functioned as the headquarters of PGR [State Agricultural Farm], which had their offices there and then they opened a granary in the castle. In 1933 the structure was purchased by a private investor from Belgium who was supposed to renovate it. In 2008 the oldest wing of the building collapsed. In 2011 the Banie municipality regained the building and a year later the eastern wing of the castle and the roof were renovated. In 2013 the renovation works of the tower were completed.
The castle is surrounded by 2.5 ha of the natural park from the 19th century. In the park there are numerous species of trees. The castle was included on the list of monuments in 1957. Since 2009 Stowarzyszenie Zamek Swobnica [Swobnica Castle Association] has been operating and its main goal is to rescue the monument.

The Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas
The first mentions of the Gothic church in Wolin date back to the year 1288. The temple underwent multiple reconstructions. During World War II, it was nearly completely destroyed, but eventually rebuilt.
Parish Church of St. Nicholas the Bishop is in Wolin, at Kościelna. The Dziwna River flows about 300 meters from the temple.
Wolin was the first bishop's seat to be established because of a Christianization mission. The episcopal seat was approved in 1124. In 1160 it was moved to Kamień Pomorski. The medieval temple, as the only one of the three, has remained in Wolin to this day. The first mentions of it come from 1288. Unfortunately, it is not possible to say exactly what the temple looked like originally. After another reconstruction in the 14th century, it is only known that the building was three-nave, on a square plan, with a western tower. It is also known that in the 15th century the pseudo-basilica was rebuilt once again after a construction disaster. In the 19th century, the church was rebuilt, it survived the wars and has remained in Wolin to this day.
However, during the war, two historic churches of St. George and St. Nicholas were badly damaged. The city was 70% ruined. The communist authorities demolished the church of St. George, while the church of St. Nicholas was left. Only on May 31, 1988, the churches were transferred to church authorities. It was then that construction and conservation plans and activities began. The church was put into use in 1999. In the presbytery there is a high crucifix, a figure of the Risen Jesus, a tabernacle surrounded by ears of grain and a vine. There are Stations of the Cross on walls.

The former spa house
The former spa complex is located to the east of the Old Town complex, just outside the city walls. Buildings are located in the eastern part, while the western part consists of a landscape park, adjacent to the spa house. The spa house was established at the turn of the 19th and the 20th centuries as a therapeutic bathing facility that used peat bog deposits.
The original spa complex was comprised of a spa house, a boiler house, a kitchen, and a gym. The present buildings include a laundry, an ironing room, a common room, a garage, an archive, a chapel, and a porter’s lodge.
The main building is located in the centre of the complex. The spa house has the total area of 745 square meters. It was built in brick on a crushed rock foundation in a form of a horseshoe. Along the eastern wall of the spa house there were tracks used for transporting therapeutic peat. There is no historic window or door carpentry preserved in the building.
The historic boiler house is located to the east of the spa house. The building was built in brick. There is a free-standing chimney situated near its northwest corner. The building has 120 square meters. The kitchen and the gym are also located to the east of the main building. The kitchen, built in brick, has 115 square meters. No window or door carpentry has been preserved. In the attic, there are two metal boilers used in the past to heat up therapeutic peat.
The complex was built in the years 1898-1907, but the spa resort started its activity already in 1898. After the Second World War, the complex of buildings was taken over by the Treasury; it functioned as a health resort for three first years after the war, then the entire equipment was transported to Połczyn Zdrój, and the house itself was transformed into the Holiday Academic Centre. In the late 1970s, after a major overhaul and construction of present buildings, the former spa complex has become a seat of a nursing home, which is located there up to this day.
The building has been entered into the provincial register of historic monuments in January 2003.

The Lutheran Holy Trinity Parish
The Lutheran parish centre is now the Church of Holy Trinity. What belongs to the parish is also the Dietrich Bonhoeffer guest house, the Dietrich Bonhoeffer International Study and Meeting Centre at 32 Piotra Skargi Street the square in Zdroje at 6 Jabłoniowa Street (the former residence of the seminary). The current pastor is Rev. Sławomir Janusz Sikora (since 2007). The parish has two branches. They are: St. John's Church in Trzebiatów and a chapel in Kłodzin.
The Church of Holy Trinity (formerly - St. Gertrude's Church) in Szczecin has been in possession of the Evangelical-Augsburg parish since 1954. The parish, however, has a long history, dating back to the Middle Ages. According to the old Pomeranian chronicles, the construction of St Gertrude's Church began in 1308. Originally, it had to serve merchants and craftsmen living in the area of ​​Szczecin called Łasztownia (Lastadie).
The Evangelical-Augsburg church is the oldest and largest Protestant church in Poland and currently the only Lutheran church in the Republic of Poland. It belongs to the Lutheran World Federation, the World Council of Churches, Conference of European Churches and the Polish Ecumenical Council.

The Monument Of Bogusław X And His Wife Anna Jagiellonka
The monument was made by Leonia Chmielnik and Anna Paszkiewicz. They are also the authors of the Griffon standing in front of the building of the City Hall. The sculptures made by the artists are usually of austere form – in this case it is similar. The monument was unveiled in 1974. It represents a ducal couple, probably on day of their wedding, which is suggested by an inscription located on the pedestal. Bogusław X passed as a wise ruler, due to which he gained the appellation “Great”. He was, however, a 37-year-old widower before finding his second love. Marrying him, Anna Jagiellonka was, in turn, very young (she was 15 years old). This did not prevent her from building a durable and indissoluble bond with her husband. Their marriage was a symbol of tightening of bonds between Poland and Pomerania. The material used to make the work was yellow sandstone.

The Monument Of The Victims Of The December 1970 Protests
It is one of the youngest and most interesting monuments of Szczecin. It commemorates the civil protest on Solidarności Square in Szczecin (in December 1970), during which 16 people were killed and approximately 100 were wounded. In that time, strikes connected with increase in prices of meat and comestibles took place throughout Poland. The monument was unveiled in 2005 in the 25th anniversary of the creation of the Independent Self-governing Trade Union "Solidarność". It represents a figure of an angel, under which special inscriptions along with a commemorative plaque with the names of the killed are located. The monument’s designer is Czesław Dźwigaj. What is noteworthy is the fact that before implementing his idea, the city authorities wanted to put in the place where the statue is standing several other sculptures. None of these projects, however, has been implemented. The other name of the monument is "Anioł Wolności" [Angel of Freedom].

The old city slaughterhouse
The first references about the slaughterhouse reach back to the beginning of the 19th century, when the local guild received the right to build butcheries within the Fish Market and the New Market in the Old City. The first slaughterhouse was established by the river, next to the exit of Kłodna Street. The current Grodzka island was also taken, as cattle were kept there.
At the beginning of the 16th a decision to transfer the slaughterhouse to the Łasztownia island was made. However strong development of the facilities was related to the change of the city function. When in the 19th century they made a decision regarding the liquidation of the fort, the city started to develop dynamically. An increased number of residents also increased the demand for meat.
Approx. 1880 when the old slaughterhouse was not able to supply the city with meat, a decision was made to build a new complex. The choice of the location was not accidental – first of all a huge area to be managed (approx. 2.5 ha), second of all great communication with the city and third of all the right distance, which protected the residents from potential odours.
The authors of the design of the new slaughterhouse were Conrad Kruhl and Carl Schmidt. The facilities were completed in July 1899. The buildings were similar to the buildings serving the same function in Leipzig, Hanover and Chemnitz. Up until 1945 the slaughterhouse was communicated with the city by a tram line and by Kłodny Bridge which was destroyed (currently works are conducted to reconstruct it).
After the war up until 1947 the area of Łasztownia was managed by the Soviet army. Then in the 80’s of the 20th century the complex was used by Zakłady Mięsne (Meat Processing Plant). Later on it was taken over by PPU Port Rybacki Gryf. Today the buildings are used mostly as warehouses. Their condition is rather poor, however it needs to be underlined that it is one of few such complexes almost in the city centre.
For several years there have been attempts made to revive Łasztownia – a private company CSL renovated one of the buildings (a cowshed) and opened their offices there and a centre of culture. Other buildings are also being renovated, as they were acquired by private investors. The renovation works of the coast, construction of a bridge and modernization of roads leading to the complex are supposed to support the modernization and revival of Łasztownia.
The old slaughterhouse was included in the list of monuments of the province in December 1997.

The Old Town
Gryfino was originally a medieval fishing village. Gryfino received civic rights in 1254. The most intensive development of the town occurred in the thirteenth-fourteenth century. To defend the town against the attacks of Brandenburg, a double wall made of wood and earth was built at the end of the thirteenth century, and town walls were erected in the fourteenth century.
Only a few fragments and the Bańska Gate remained from the line of fortifications. The fragment of the walls in the south-eastern part of the town (approx. 70 metres) is looks best.
The Old Town of Gryfino has retained its medieval street layout with a market in the centre. At the main square, You can find the Romanesque church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which was built between 1254 - 1278 and rebuilt in the Gothic style at the turn of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the largest ones in Western Pomerania. It was built on a Greek cross plan. The top is adorned with a neo-baroque tower with a cupola and lantern. Inside the building, You can find the stellar vault and a Renaissance pulpit dating from 1605. The most valuable element of the church is the 1580 altar by David Redtel. Today, a part of the altar (the altarpiece) is in the National Museum in Szczecin, a predella depicting the Last Supper has still remained in the church. The present neo-Gothic altar dates from the nineteenth century. The organ, which can be found in the church, is the work of a famous manufacturer from Szczecin - Barnim Grüneberg.
At the intersection of contemporary Pierwszego Maja Street and Sprzymierzonych Street, there is a historic post office building from 1883. The location of the post office is not accidental and is connected with the launch of a Kostrzyn-Szczecin railway connection in 1877.
Unfortunately, Gryfino suffered a lot during the fighting in 1945. Most of the historic buildings were destroyed. The Old Town of Gryfino was inscribed on the list of monuments in October 1955.

The Old Town
Most probably the beginning of the town reaches back to the stronghold of the Lubuszanie tribe which constituted a part of Cedynia Pomeranian castellany. The medieval settlement was located on the trade route which connected Wielkopolska with the Wielecki lands. The first references about the village come from 1248. Most probably in the middle of the 12th century – before 1233 – Trzcińsko-Zdrój was granted municipal rights, and in 1281 the town was granted trade rights.
In the 14th century Trzcińsko-Zdrój was surrounded with defensive walls. In the 15th century the town was managed by the Teutonic Knights, and during their reign the town was attacked and destroyed by the Husyts. Trzcińsko-Zdrój was completely destroyed during the Thirty Years' War and its population was killed. Only the 18th century brought more peaceful times for the town and the economic situation started to improve thanks to the development of craftsmanship. At the end of the 19th century one of the local doctors discovered layers of mud peat, thanks to which in 1898 in Trzcińsko-Zdrój a treatment facility was created and then the town was transformed into a spa town. And despite the fact that Trzcińsko-Zdrój functioned as a spa town only until the end of the 2nd World War, the segment “Zdrój” [spa] reserved for health resorts remained in the name. Despite numerous wars conducted throughout the ages in Trzcińsko-Zdrój the medieval street layout was preserved. The town fortifications, which were built in the Middle Ages, largely survived up until now. In the fortification line five lupine towers, twenty rectangular towers and two towers – Gunpowder Tower and Stork’s Tower, as well as two town gates – Myśliborska Gate and Chojeńska Gate were preserved. The fortifications were made of fieldstone and brick.
In the central point of the old town there is a medieval town hall which was built in the 13th century as a merchants’ house. At Kościelna Street near the market square there is an early Gothic parish church of Our Lady of Perpetual Help which was constructed in the second half of the 13th century. A tenement house situated at the corner of Kościuszki Street and Chojnicka Street was included on the list of monuments, as well as a building (currently a clinic) located at 20 2 Lutego Street.
The area of the old town in Trzcińsko-Zdrój was entered on the list of monuments in April 1955.

The ruins of a church in Pargowo
The ruins of a church in Pargowo are the remnants of a beautiful church from the 14th century, which has not survived up to this day. The building was built on a rectangular plan. It was an aisleless church built of granite slabs. Later on, a sacristy was added on the northern side of the building. Only the walls of the church, with window openings and portals, have been preserved up to this day. Two portals, which can be seen today, are located on the northern and southern walls. From the west, there is a sepulchral monument made of sandstone in a form of an arcade portico incorporated into the façade of the church. This is the most interesting and most valuable element of the building. A plaque used to be there; nowadays, there is an empty place topped with a coat of arms of the von Blumennthal family. The church was open till 1945, and after the Second World War, it started to fall in disrepair. The charming remnants of the church are surrounded by a low damaged wall of stone, covered here and there with ivy. Near the church, there was a cemetery, whose presence can be proven by sparse fragments of tombstones scattered around the building. The area is covered by dense, wild vegetation. There are many stately and ancient trees.

The Town fortifications of Trzcińsko Zdrój
Despite its stormy past, numerous fires and wars, in Trzcińsko-Zdrój the line of the town fortifications remains quite impressive. The fortifications were built in 14th-15th century and they are made of fieldstone and brick. Some time ago the fortifications had 30 shooting towers, they were surrounded by a moat and an embankment – both were destroyed in the 19th century.
Five lupine towers, twenty rectangular towers and two towers – Prochowa and Bociana, as well as two gates – Myśliborska and Chojeńska (there were three, but Strzeszowska Gate did not endure) exist up until now.
Myśliborska Gate was built in the 14th century and it was 20 high long. It constituted the most important element of the town defence. The bottom part of the structure was made of granite blocks and the upper – of brick. It is a tower gate created on the plan of a rectangle. The structure is equipped with an iron grating which replaced a wooden grating. In the 16th century octagonal superstructures were created from which it was possible to monitor the surroundings. There are also shooting apertures in the gate. The name of the gate comes from its location in the wall – it is directed towards Myślibórz.
Chojeńska Gate was built in the 14th century and it was 18 m high. In the 15th century a gateway was also built which was later destroyed in the 19th century. As in the case of Myśliorska Gate, the lower part of Chojeńska Gate was made of fieldstone and the upper – of brick. This gate also had an iron grating which in the past was closed for the night. In the 16th century octagonal superstructures were built which allowed monitoring of the area. Ladders were used to move between different floors. There was a permanent team working at the gate, as well as equipment and food supplies. Also in this case the name is related to the direction towards which it was built.
Prochowa Tower was created in the 15th century by the closing of a semi-circular shed. The tower built on the plan of a circle was probably used to store gunpowder. The lower part of the structure was made of stone, and the upper – of brick. In the tower shooting apertures are visible and the structure has a defensive porch finished with a wall without blanks.
The name of the Bociania Tower has been used since the 19th century and it comes from a crow's nest which has been on the structure up until now. The structure itself was built in the 15th century by the closing of a 14th century rectangular shed. There was a residential building built in the 19th century which adhered to the tower. We will find three shooting apertures in the walls of the tower.
Town fortifications of Trzcińsko-Zdrój were entered on the list of monuments in November 1963.

The Town Hall
In the southern part of the town at 15 Rynek Street there is a 15th-century town hall. The Gothic building was built in the 13th century as a merchants’ house. At the turn of the 14th and 15th century the structure was expanded, and in the 16th century Late Gothic decorative peaks, a cross and net vault were added. The town hall was built on the plan of a rectangle and it is made of red brick covered with plaster. The two-story building has a basement and a gable roof covered with ceramic tiles.
In some rooms there are cross - ribbed vaults, and in the former court room there is net vault with polychrome from the 16th century. Polychromes with floral and geometric motifs were revealed during maintenance works conducted in the 80’s of the 20th century.
Throughout the ages the building was renovated, reconstructed and restored many times. It changed its look frequently, but in the foundation of the town hall its oldest part was preserved. Fundamental renovation works were conducted after the Thirty Years' War and in the second half of the 17th century, at the turn of the 19th and 20th century. The last significant renovation was conducted at the turn of the 80’s and 90’s of the 20th century.
The town hall served many functions, and each story was used for different purposes depending on the needs of the residents. The rooms were used for trading, official, religious and judicial purposes. Up until the beginning of the 19th century on the ground floor there were markets, while after the war there was a detention cell and a police station. Currently the town hall serves the town administration. On the ground floor there are rooms of the town officials, on the first floor is the mayor's office and a large hall in which sessions of the Town Council take place and civil weddings are organized.

The town walls
Gryfino was granted civic rights in the second half of the thirteenth century. The then rapid development of the town led to the decision of building the town's fortifications. First of them, built in 1284, were double ramparts made of wood and earth. Then, the construction of stone and brick fortifications was started, and was completed in the fifteenth century. At the end of the fifteenth and the beginning of sixteenth centuries, it was decided to strengthen the gate (foregates were added).
After the work was completed, the full line of Gryfino's fortifications consisted of 32 rectangular look-outs, which were slightly beyond the walls, with the space of 20 - 25 metres between each one; and one cylindrical tower. To the city led two gates – the Szczecin Gate, which was set from the north and the Bańska Gate that guarantees entrance from the south side. In addition, three water gates were built from the Oder's side. The safety of the town was also improved by the moat around the walls, water to which was taken from a nearby river. Gryfino's fortifications survived until the seventeenth century. In 1640, Swedish army destroyed the walls from the side of the Oder. The western part of the fortifications was totally destroyed by the floods that occurred in 1780 and 1830. At the end of the eighteenth century, it was decided to dismantle the foregate.
Today, only small fragments of walls with remnants of the look-outs on the south and north sides are preserved in Gryfino. At today's Bolesław Chrobry Street, we can find the only preserved Gothic gate - brama Bańska [the Bańska Gate] (formerly known as brama św. Jerzego [St George's Gate). At the end of the nineteenth century, the gate was close to being dismantled due to the expansion of the town. Because of the fact that the City Council declared it a monument in 1864, the building remained intact. In 1888 the building was renovated, and in 1979, during the next overhaul, the battlements of a gun terrace were reconstructed.
The south elevation of the Bańska Gate, just above the crossing, is decorated with ceramic blinds. In the northern elevation, there is an ogival blind above the crossing. In the western wall, there is a bay used as acting as a latrine - the so-called dansker. There, loopholes and semi-circular windows can also be found.
Gryfino's medieval fortifications were built of granite boulders that were cemented with clay-lime mortar. The boulders were arranged irregularly. Part of the walls formed from bricks was in monk bond.  On the south-east side, there is the longest part of the preserved medieval fortifications. It is about 70 metres long.
The town walls in Gryfino were written into the list of monuments in September 1958

Turquoise Lake
The reservoir on Wolin Island was created after World War II in the formed chalkpit workings. Its name refers to the turquoise color of the water, particularly vivid in sunny weather.
Turkusowe Lake was formed on the site of a former chalk pit. A Portland cement factory, founded by Johannes Quistorp in 1829, operated in the nearby town of Lubin. Local raw material, exploited to a great extent, was used. The Russians dismantled mining equipment after World War II, and the pit slowly began to be filled with water. The mine resumed work in 1948. Due to the difficulties in obtaining chalk in 1954, mining operations were finally ended. It was then that the ground and rain waters began to fill the basin of the pit again. The water level reached this of the Szczecin Lagoon c. 1960.
The lake covers an area of ​​6.7 hectares and is the largest one in Wolin National Park. It reaches a maximum depth of 21.2 m. The phenomenon of pseudo-depression occurs there. The reservoir bed is, in fact, below sea level (18.6 m). The waters of the basin take specific turquoise colour, hence the name of the lake [turquoise is turkusowy in Polish]. This colour is created by the reflection of sunlight in the water containing calcium carbonate compounds and white limestone reservoir bed.
The lake is surrounded by the Wapno-Lubin Hills, mostly covered with beech. It is worth taking a walk around the lake and start from the vantage point near the car park. Behind a wooden gate, there is a large deck fenced with a balustrade, with a panoramic view of the turquoise waters of the lake surrounded by steep banks of the old workings. In case it rains, You can hide under the carport. Near the deck and the car park, a hungry tourist will find the eating place. In addition, You go to the viewpoint on Piaskowa Mount. You can admire there a view of the reservoir, beautifully situated Wapnica, the Trzciągowo Valley, the Wyżnica Range, Wicko Małe Lake and on a fragment of the Świna reverse delta.
The reservoir can only be admired by walking around it. Any other forms of activity are forbidden, which means that no one can swim, fish, or dive. Nevertheless, it is worth seeing the amazing colours of Turkusowe Lake and stay for a while in this amazing place.

Underground City on Wolin island
Built in the 1930s, the Underground City is a maze of underground corridors, rooms, and bunkers. In the times of the Polish People’s Republic, its exact location and layout were known only to a group of high-ranking military officers. In 2014, it was opened to visitors.
The Underground City on Wolin Island was opened to the public in May 2014. It is another, after the Coastal Defense Museum, venture of history enthusiasts, it is a branch of the museum. After the Gerhard Fort was restored and made available to visitors, it was the turn of the Underground City.
For years, the Underground City was a secret military facility, the existence of which only the highest-ranking officers of the Polish People's Republic knew about. It is a network of underground corridors almost a kilometer long, several dozen rooms and several shelters hidden under coastal dunes. The construction of the complex began in the 1930s. These facilities constituted the third largest coastal defense battery on the Polish coast. Until recently, it was an area managed by the military and entry here was impossible.
Visiting the complex takes place in an interactive way. Tourists are organized in platoons and, under the watchful eye of the commander, they set off into the field. Visiting the facility is a journey through time full of attractions. One of the attractions, apart from the kilometer-long walk through the tunnel connecting the shelters, is a fully equipped engine room shelter, some of which are still operational.
The facility is called a testimony of history that everyone should see, and for history lovers, what they see underground will undoubtedly be a real treasure.
The tour of the complex takes approximately 90 minutes. Entry to the site is only possible with a guide. The number of people who can enter the dungeons at one time is limited. The temperaturę in the facility does not exceed 10 degrees.

V3 Bunker – Miniature Museum
V3 was a German large-caliber gun from World War II. In the bunker, you can see the remains of the 150 m long platforms of the cannon. The maximum firing range of V3 was 165 km.
Bunker - Weapons Museum V3 is in the village of Wicko, at Nabrzeżna. The museum is approx. 4.5 km south-west of the town of Międzyzdroje.
On the road from Międzyzdroje towards Lubin, just past the Zalesie settlement, on the left you can see a mysterious concrete staircase with a small bunker at the foot of it. They are the remains of German secret weapon positions from World War II V3 (Vergeltungswaffe 3). Concrete stairs formed the basis of the 125- and 90-meter-long long-range cannons, on which the Germans worked from 1943 to February 1945. It was supposed to be a retaliatory weapon, which was planned to be used in the Allied fire.
The multi-chamber cannon, the barrel of which measured about 125 meters, had a firing range of over 160 km! The weapon itself rested on a specially constructed concrete base, on the slope of a hill. After a series of trials on the Wolin Island, the gun was to be used in attacks on London. Ultimately, the cannons were in the small town of Mimoyecques, near Calais, on the English Channel in France. Even a gigantic underground defense complex had already been built there, consisting of two bunkers and positions for 25 V3 guns. The system of several chambers located along the barrel, in which the explosives were to be located, is an unusual technological solution of the secret weapon. They exploded right after the projectile passed them, which gave it additional acceleration. Due to the appearance of the cannon, the term "centipede" quickly stuck to it, and such a name was used even among German soldiers and command. The first practical use of the cannon took place during the German offensive in the Ardennes. The cannon mounted there had a firing range of 65 km. Unfortunately, the biggest problem was the speed of the projectile's preparation and launch. During the day, only three of the planned dozen were launched. On February 12, 1945, attempts to use the new weapons ceased, and the Soviet troops that entered the area in March, found only concrete and brick foundations of V3 cannons. Today, in the storage bunker of the former military training ground, there is a small museum that can be visited after making an appointment by phone. It presents the history of the place. Mr. Piotr, who looks after the museum, can spread his passion and the way of storytelling to interest even the most unrepentant opponent of militaria. On the other side of the road, in the waters of Wicko Lake, there is a restaurant ship moored that used to sail as a cruise ship on the Black Sea, carrying communist Kremlin notables.

One of the four forts of Fortress Świnoujście, built in the mid-19th century on Usedom Island. Today the fort is the seat of the Świnoujście Fortress History Museum.
Fort West is one of the four forts of the Świnoujście Fortress. It was built in the years 1856-1861. Its task was to defend the port against enemy ships. It was a one-story redoubt built on a square plan. A few years later, it was reinforced with brick wings and surrounded by an earth embankment and a water moat. After 1878, a coastal battery with an artillery terrace and casemates was fortified. Later, the artillery redoubt turned into a redoubt fort, and more cannons were designed. The next stage in the development of the fort was the appearance of machine guns and light mortars.
After World War I, the fort was disarmed. The fort was armed again in the interwar period, when a battery of four 150 mm coastal guns was installed. In 1941, a concrete command bunker was erected on the west wing of the fort. After 1945, the Russians built three more bunkers - in the center of the fort and at both ends of it. After the war, the fort was used by the Soviet navy. In 1962, it was handed over to the city, but Soviet units were stationed in Świnoujście until 1992.
An interesting fact is that it was from Fort West that the battleship Schleswig Holnstein set off, which on September 1, 1939 shelled Westerplatte, starting World War II.
In 2001, a group of enthusiasts from the "Reduta" Association leased the area of the fort. After revitalization, in 2004, the Świnoujście Fortress History Museum was opened in the fort.
The exhibition consists of a museum part and an open-air part. The museum part is divided into four thematic sections. The first one presents the Prussian times of the 19th and 20th centuries. The second section covers the interwar period and the period of World War II. The third section presents the times of the "Cold War". In the fourth one you can see the history of the naval port and exhibits of wrecks. The outdoor exhibition features cannons, sea mines, torpedoes, rocket launchers and depth charges. The entire facility is surrounded by a water moat and covers an area of approx. 2 ha.
The sightseeing route includes the museum room and the marked trail around the entire fort. A guardhouse, a fire control tower, underground and artillery positions are available to visitors. Organized groups are shown by a guide. The duration of visiting the entire facility is approx. 1 hour. Tourists visiting the fort in summer must remember to wear warm clothes due to the low temperature in the facility.
More similar attractions await fans of military and history in Świnoujście, because three of the four forts built in the 19th century have survived to this day and all of them are open to the public.

Wełtyńskie Lake
Wełtyńskie Lake, also called Wałtyń, is the largest water reservoir in the Gryfino County. Its surface area is 310.1 ha, and has a maximum depth of 11.6 m. The coastline is 14 km long and it is diversified with numerous bays. It has a shape of irregular eclipse. Moraine hills with a height of up to 20 m above sea level surrounding the reservoir make the area look very picturesque. Three large islands are also very charming: Koźla, Dzicza and Ptasia with their total surface area of 32 ha. Struga Wełtyńska flows out of Wełtyńskie Lake. Along the coastal zone of the lake – on the northern and western parts – there are reed beds and bushes. The lake is surrounded by forests nearly from all sides. On the northern-eastern part of the lake there are meadows with orchids, autumn crocus and short carex. It is also worth observing birds at the lake. You can come across a great crested grebe, a swan, an Eurasian coot, a red-necked grebe, a black-necked grebe, a little bittern, and a black stork.
In the Middle Ages Wełtyń was famous as a fishing lake. Currently fishermen catch mainly breams, pikes, tenches and carps. The lake is also popular among tourists from nearby Gryfino and Szczecin. On the southern and western shore there are numerous resorts, campsites and agritourist farms. Rentals of water equipment offer pedal boats, canoes and boats. It is however prohibited to use motorised boats. There are numerous hiking trails, such as black Czepiński Trail and blue Trail of Wełtyńska Plain and the Myślibórz Lake District.

Wiatrak holenderski
Obecnie Otoki są administracyjną częścią Lubanowa, od centrum wsi oddalone są 800 metrów na wschód. W 2013 roku na terenie Otoków mieszkało 5 osób.
W Otokach jedynym zabytkiem jest XIX-wieczny wiatrak holenderski. Budowla została wzniesiona w latach 70, obiekt został wybudowany najprawdopodobniej pomiędzy 1871 roku, a 1888 rokiem – w 1871 roku nie pojawiają się jeszcze żadne wzmianki dotyczące wiatraka, zaś na mapach z 1888 roku już odnajdziemy ten budynek. Według ustnych przekazów wiatrak działał tylko do przełomu XIX i XX wieku, wówczas na potrzeby wsi wystarczająca była praca istniejących młynów – dolnego i górnego, wybudowanego w 1895 roku. Po 1945 roku wiatrak został ponownie uruchomiony przez polskiego młynarza i działał do 1960 roku. Przez kolejne 30 lat obiekt był nieużywany i popadał w ruinę. Dopiero w 1990 roku budynek został wykupiony przez prywatnego inwestora.
Wiatrak holenderski w Otokach został wybudowany na planie okręgu o średnicy 815 cm. Obiekt ma charakterystyczną dla tego typu wiatraków bryłę w formie ściętego stożka. Jeszcze w latach 80. XX wieku całość była nakryta dwunaczółkowym dachem. Pierwotnie obiekt (łącznie z dachem) miał 1100 cm wysokości. Budowla została wzniesiona z czerwonej cegły. Wewnątrz budynek był podzielony drewnianymi stropami belkowymi na trzy kondygnacja. Na samej górze znajdowały się mechanizmy obrotowe czapy i część urządzeń transmisyjnych. Dziś z wyposażenia wiatraka zachowało się niewiele: drewniany wał sztorcowy na posadzce, metalowe koło trybowe na belkach stropowych, fragmenty odsiewacza cylindrycznego i dwa kamienie mlewnika o średnicy 145 cm.

Windmill Beacon
The 10 m high beacon was built in 1874 as a leading mark of the Świnoujście harbor. The Windmill Beacon is included in the official logo of Świnoujście.
A sector light is a navigational beacon guiding ships to the waterway that leads along the bed of the Świna River. It was established in the years 1873-1874 as a part of the waterway modernization project. The designer of the sector light was a chief architect by the name of Severin, who gave it a characteristic shape of a windmill. The building is 10 metres tall and is painted white. The sector light is still used. From the side of the sea, there is a pulsating light that shows sailors the right way to the port at night. Thanks to its undying popularity, the sector light became a part of the official logo of Świnoujście, so it can be seen on postcards or the covers of tourist guidebooks and brochures.
There is a legend connected with the sector light. In the old days, the mariners from Świnoujście went back home from long voyages exhausted and aged. Alicja, a wife of a mariner, was so desperate when she saw how her beloved Krzysztof looked like that she went to the sea shore at night and started to weep. Then she heard a voice that told her to go to the nearby windmill. An old miller lived there and he told Alicja to go back with her husband next day. When they returned, the miller covered Krzysztof with mud, told him to take baths in the sea and stroll. When a week passed, the miller took him to the windmill, and the husband of Alicja came out rejuvenated. The windmill soon started to be visited by other seamen. After the death of the miller, it turned out that nobody knows the secret of his treatment, and the mechanism of the windmill stopped. In spite of this, people who want to be rejuvenated come to Świnoujście to bury themselves in mud, take a swim, and stroll.

Łasztownia Island in Szczecin
The name Łasztownia (Latin Lastadia) derives from the Latin words lastagium, lestagium, lastadium. They determined the weight of the load. In the 14th century, laszt (last) became a commonly used measure of cargo carried by ships. It was also used to provide quantities of loose goods, mainly grains.
Knowing the etymology of the name, it is easy to guess its purpose. However, it was used for port purposes from 1283. Originally, the island was much smaller. It can be said that it was a coastal clump opposite the present Long Bridge.
Today's Łasztownia was situated on the route leading from Dąbie to Szczecin. In the aforementioned 1283, Szczecin acquired the rights to the island. The purchase was dictated by the dynamically developing commercial port and the related increased movement of goods. The city needed new land for expansion. Wooden quays and platforms for loading and unloading goods were built on the island. There were also a loading crane, granaries and warehouses for other goods.
The further dynamic development of the port resulted in the occupation of another island. The fourteenth-century springs already refer to all the islands north of Parnica as Łasztownia. Individual areas of Łasztownia were specified, with the name of the plant added to the main one, e.g. Łasztownia Shipyard built in 1500 (schippbuwer lastadie). In the 17th century, Łasztownia was considered a strategic point, and therefore it was surrounded by earth ramparts. They were built along the present Gdańsk Boulevard and Władysława IV Street. In 1727, stone gates were built: Parnicka and Kozia. In the nineteenth century, the fortifications were deemed unnecessary and were therefore pulled down.
The currently preserved street layout dates from the first half of the 18th century and is associated with the reorganization of the Łasztownia area during the reign of the Prussian king Frederick William I. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, most of the 18th-century buildings were replaced with new, Art Nouveau buildings. Due to the housing hunger, tenement houses for workers were built on the hitherto port island. Factories and production plants were also built, such as a sugar factory (currently Przedsiębiorstwo Przemysłu Cukierniczego "Gryf" S.A.).
During the Second World War, Łasztownia was bombed during regular Allied air raids (1942-1944). After the war, Łasztownia was dynamically developed by companies related to the sea. They have their headquarters here, among others Polska Żegluga Morska, Żegluga Szczecińska or the Customs Office. Some of the buildings created during the construction boom are currently empty. They attract cultural events such as outdoor performances and music festivals.

“Przełomy” Dialogue Centre – branch of the National Museum in Szczecin
One of the exhibition pavilions of the National Museum in Szczecin dedicated to pivotal moments in the contemporary history of West Pomerania, starting from the incorporation of Szczecin into Poland in 1945.
The Dialogue Center "Przełomy" is located in the immediate vicinity of the Old Town, in an exposed place, next to important monuments - the gothic church of Saints Peter and Paul - one of the oldest churches in Szczecin, the Royal Gate - baroque remains of Prussian fortifications, erected as one of the four entrances to the city by Gerhard Cornelius van Walrave in the years 1734–1738–and the brick police headquarters - a magnificent office building built in the early twentieth century, according to the plans of the Berlin architect Oskar Launer.
The quarter adjacent to the prestigious Royal Square (currently Plac Żołnierza Polskiego), housing the representative building of the Municipal Theater, a classicist work by Carl Ferdinand Langhans from 1845-1849, was marked out in the 1880s, after the liquidation of the ramparts running through this area. After the decision to liquidate the fortress (1873), the arrangement of the tree-lined passage of the Royal Gate was determined by the plan drawn up in 1876-1877 by Konrad Kruhl, which determined the width of Matejki Street (along the former road leading from the Royal Gate) and the course of Małopolska Street.
In the years 1883–1884 a magnificent neo-baroque philharmonic was established here. The first building, shaping the corner of Matejki and Małopolska Streets. Within the regular, rectangular Solidarności Square, a compact complex of four-storey tenement houses, partly with services on the ground floors, is planned.. The buildings were started from the side of the Royal Gate, where two magnificent tenement houses with outbuildings were erected. Their front elevations are decorated with rich, eclectic details: rustication, cornices, panels, pilasters, pediments and brackets - also in the form of caryatids - obtained a distinct vertical division with bay windows, which on the cut corners of the quarter were exposed with turrets dominating over the low surface of the ceramic roof. A similar character was given to the facades of buildings erected in the center of the quarter from the side of Żołnierza Polskiego Square and Małopolska Street in the 1990s, as well as tenement houses built before the First World War from Świętych Piotra i Pawła Street. The latter, however, according to the architectural tendencies of the time, are devoid of fragmented detail and horizontal divisions, but they work with chiaroscuro separation of the body with bay windows, balconies, loggias and gables protruding above the roof surface.. High ground floors with exposed entrance portals housed the seats of prestigious companies, and from the side of the wide, most attractive passageway, also shops and restaurants, which in the summer invited to gardens arranged on a part of the pavement.
During the Second World War, the entire quarter was destroyed as a result of bombing raids. After the rubble was removed, a square was created here, gradually filled with greenery. On three sides, the square is surrounded by rows of linden trees, and the interior is filled with lawns decorated with modest vegetation, among which the old robinia specimen stands out. In the 1960s, a playground with a sandbox and a fishing boat was set up here, which "went down in history" after the events of December 1970, when the workers gathered here, striking against price increases, tried to use it to ram the gates of the nearby police headquarters.
.As a place symbolizing solidarity resistance to the communist authorities, the square became the site of opposition demonstrations. In December 2005, a monument to the victims of December '70 was unveiled from the side of the church - with a cast-iron sculpture of the Angel of Freedom, Czesław Dźwigaj. On August 30, 2013, on the 33rd anniversary of signing the August Agreements, during the official ceremony, the foundation act was laid for the construction of the Dialogue Center "Przełomy". The object is impressive. It is a concrete, undulating slab on Plac Solidarności, which on one side goes down to the level of the road, and on the other, it reaches over the second floor of the police building. It is intended that the roof of the Museum is to be a meeting place for the inhabitants of Szczecin.
Currently, the Dialogue Center "Przełomy" is a multimedia historical museum of war and post-war Szczecin and Western Pomerania, a department of the National Museum in Szczecin. Being both a building and a square, the facility is also a synthesis of the history of the place.
You can get to the Przełomów pavilion from two sides. The entrance from the street is in the only corner - the highest part of the building. The second entrance - from the side of the rising square - the pavilion's roof, is marked with a simple indentation in a smoothly shaped body. The level differences are secured with glass-filled steel barriers, created as a result of the uplift of the square, and then the road leading to the entrance cut out in it. Rotating wall fragments from the corner side, if necessary, "smoothly" close the body of the building, making it an impenetrable and homogeneous whole, or a monolith.  In addition to the implemented general assumptions, what is noticeable is the precise coordination and harmonization of the divisions of the square-building surface with the surrounding pavement and the divisions of composite façade panels. This discipline of the line of cladding joining is to continue in the floors, walls, woodwork divisions and ceilings inside the pavilion.
The aim of the exhibition is to show the breakthrough moments of Pomeranian history, starting with the incorporation of Szczecin into the Polish state as a result of the Potsdam Agreements in 1945, with particular emphasis on the moments of social rebellion (1970, 1981, 1989), which led to Poland regaining sovereignty in 1989. It won't be just a story about what was great - a true story is also a story about people's choices, good and worse. It will be a space for debates between people with different views and memories, unconventional educational projects, and the use of the latest media and multimedia techniques in creating the exhibition.
Currently, in addition to events related to the opening of exhibition expositions, the Center hosts historical debates, museum and history lessons, lectures and conferences, historical performances, competitions for children, workshops, and celebrates anniversaries and promotional campaigns.
