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

Church of St Nicholas in Anklam
The church of St Nicholas, located in the heart of the Hanseatic town of Anklam by the Peene river, is one of the few remains of the brick Gothic architecture dating back to the founding of Anklam 750 years ago. The “Window Gallery of Hansa Coats of Arms” in the church is a unique monument to the Hanseatic League.
The St. Nicholas church has been named in honor of St. Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors, fishers and the tradesmen. It was built in gothic-hanseatic architecture and was completed during the second part of the 15th century. For centuries the church was the town’s landmark and a symbol for freedom and the prosperity of the hanseatic townspeople. The 103m high church tower – once a lighthouse – greets seamen on Oderhaff.
At the end of the Second World War – during the bombardment of Anklam - the church was almost completely destroyed. In 1994 the “Förderverein Nikolaichurch e.V.” was founded to protect the church. Since 1995 the church is gradually reconstructed. In 1999 the building was open to the public.
Nowadays Otto Lilienthal’s old baptistery is the exhibition house and event hall. Changing exhibitions are dedicated the dream of flying and town’s famous son.
The church tower is nowadays passable and leads you to the highest viewpoint of the town from where you can see the Peenetal in all its beauty. The project “Ikareum” should be realized in the future, a visitor center that is connected to the museum.
The St. Nicholas church is open from May till October. The Otto-Lilienthal-Museum offers tours through the church.

Cmentarz komunalny w Policach-Jasienicy
Cmentarz w Policach – Jasienicy obejmujący aktualnie obszar ok. 2,6 hektarów powstał w 2 poł. XIX wieku. Tak, jak wszystkie cmentarze przedwojenne na tych ziemiach był to cmentarz ewangelicki.  Po II wojnie światowej wraz z nadejściem polskiej administracji zaczęto grzebać tu Polaków, a nagrobki niemieckie były po prostu likwidowane. Pozostałości po niemieckich mogiłach, które przetrwały jeszcze do czasów współczesnych zostały przewiezione  do lapidarium polickiego w Parku Staromiejskim w roku 2002. Jedynym nagrobkiem upamiętniającym obecność ludności niemieckiej w Jasienicy jest otoczona żeliwnym płotkiem mogiła Marianne Zitzke i jej rodziców: Karolusa i Adelhaid Fredrichów. Cmentarz porośnięty jest drzewami  i inną roślinnością. Przy wejściu na jego teren tuż za bramą widać duży drewniany krzyż. W kilku miejscach rozmieszczone są punkty czerpania wody i duże pojemniki na śmieci różnego rodzaju. W obrębie cmentarza, na uboczu stoi plenerowe WC. Wszelkie informacje nt. funkcjonowania cmentarzy komunalnych w Gminie Police można znaleźć na stronie internetowej Zakładu Gospodarki Komunalnej i Mieszkaniowej w Policach, w zakładce Cmentarz: www.zgkim.police.pl/html/cmentarz.htm.

Fiery birds
The monument is a tourist attraction not only for those who come to visit Szczecin, but also for those who like to walk along Park Kasprowicza. The outdoor monument, located in the vicinity of Teatr Leni [The Summer Theatre], is made of chains, sections and steel plates, which together form the shape of birds, which are painted into many, different colours. The work was created by Władysław Hasior. Initially, the artist created a design which was about to decorate the surrounding of the Castle of Dukes of Pomerania. However, the destination of this work of art had to be altered, due to the construction of Trasa Zamkowa [Castle Route]. In 1980, the Birds were moved to Plac Zgody [Concordia Square], but it had to be removed from there as well, because there were plans to build a tenement in that location. These days, the monument is situated in a proper and safe place. Visitors can admire it while looking at the impressive panorama of Rusałka Lake.

Florian Krygier Municipal Stadium
Opened in 1925, the Municipal Stadium is the home field of Polish top-division football club Pogoń Szczecin. Outside the game days, the stadium is open to the public. There are training pitches and a skatepark nearby.

The history of the facility began in 1914, when the closed gravel pit was converted into a football field. In 1925, a stadium with a capacity of 15,000 seats was put into use, which, apart from a full-size pitch, also included an athletics track. At the end of World War II, the area of ​​ the stadium was used by the German army as an anti-aircraft defense point. Reconstruction after the destruction of the war began in 1949, and in 1955 the stadium became the seat of the MKS Pogoń Szczecin club, which still plays its matches there. In its history, the building has undergone many modernizations, including the south stand and the arch that were raised, and the track surrounding the pitch was removed. The stands (as the first in Poland) were fully equipped with plastic chairs. Currently, the stadium has 18,027 seats, 2300 lux lighting and a heated field with dimensions of 105 x 68 m. Since 2004, it has been named after a distinguished coach, activist, and youth educator Florian Krygier. In the immediate vicinity of the stadium, there are four full-size training pitches and a skate park.
The facility is open, except for matches played by Pogoń Szczecin

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.

Goeben Tower
The command tower, called the Bell, served as the bunker of the allied headquarters and was the main object of the “Goeben” battery bunker complex. Construction was carried out in 1936-1938.

Grunwald Square
Square is the largest square in Szczecin. It was designed on a circular plan with starry avenues and streets. The square was built at the end of the 1880s on the site of Fort Wilhelm, which was demolished in 1884. The author of the square concept was James Hobrecht. It was established in the 1860s and assumed the development of Szczecin in the north-west direction. Due to the fact that the areas of the planned investment belonged to the military, the construction was completed with a delay. Before this happened, Mayor Burscher and councilor Kruhl introduced changes to the project.
They took full advantage of the projects for the reconstruction of Paris by Georges Haussmann. The resemblance to Parisian squares led to the belief that Haussmann personally designed Grunwaldzki Square. Originally, the square was called Kościelny, and later Kaiser Wilhelm. The current name was given on July 15, 1945, on the 535th anniversary of the Battle of Grunwald.
According to the project, the center of the square was occupied by a round green, and the traffic of trams and cars took place in a paved circle. The traffic organization was redesigned in the 1920s. Since then, the tram line ran through the center of the square. After 1945, it was returned to the original layout, and since the 1970s trams run again through the center of the square.
From eight sides to the square there is the alley of Pope John Paul II, alley Józefa Piłsudzkiego, Generała Ludomiła Rayskiego Street and Śląska Street. The square was surrounded by representative eclectic tenement houses. In 1944, some of them were destroyed during an Allied air raid. In their place in the sixties, multi-story blocks were built. The remaining tenement houses, which also suffered in 1944, have been carefully restored.
The square is planted with preserved old trees, among which there are specimens of budleja and yew shrubs. The infrastructure installed in the nineties, especially lamps, tries to resemble that of the thirties.

Jan Kasprowicz Park
Created in 1900 and sprawling across around 50 hectares, the park is home to over 200 tree and shrub species, and also a part of a complex neighboring the Wkrzańska Forest.
The complex is located on the slope of the Niemierzyńska Valley and is a part of a green complex connected with the nearby Wkrzańska Primeval Forest. The park is located between Słowackiego, Skargi, Zaleskiego and Wyspiańskiego Streets and covers an area of approx. 50 ha.
The present Park of Jana Kasprowicza was established in 1900 as "Quistorp Park" in honor of Johannes Quistorp, a philanthropist and entrepreneur from Szczecin, who donated the neighboring areas to the city - Jasne Błonia Square and the Arkona Forest.
Quistorp was the owner of the Portland cement factory and the construction company "Westend", he initiated the creation of a new district, the so-called Neu-West-End. At the end of the 19th century, this entrepreneur developed an urban layout in which he took into account the existence of a large green complex that would be integrated into the villa district. Quistorp consistently implemented its plan by creating a unique green belt located in the center of a large city and which you can easily walk to the nearby forest.
Officially, the park was handed over to the city in 1908. Earlier, in 1885, thanks to the damming of the Osówka river, Lake Rusałka was created - in spring and summer it was possible to sail on it, and in winter the lake turned into an ice rink. In addition, restaurants were opened in the park, a bridge over Rusalka was built, fountains and sculptures were set up. There is also a toboggan run, a concert square, a beer and milk pump room, and a playground for children. In 1915, a restaurant was opened in a former malt mill right on the lake shore, which enjoyed great popularity.
Until World War II, the complex created by Quistorp was extremely attractive for tourists and residents of Szczecin. This attractiveness was raised by exotic species of trees and shrubs brought from all over the world - some of them have survived to the present day.
There are over 200 species of trees and shrubs on the site. In addition to trees well-known in Poland, such as chestnut trees, beeches, willows and oaks, we can find, among others, mountain pine, yellow pine, Jeffrey pine, Serbian spruce, American hornbeam, Tartar maple, Persian parotia, Brewer's spruce, manna ash and Dutch linden. Moreover, in the Park of Jan Kasprowicz, we will find the only North American Garden in Europe. The park is also very popular among cyclists - after all, it is here that we can find a fragment of the oldest bicycle path in all of Central Europe.
After World War II, the site, which since 1945 has been called "park im. Jan Kasprowicz ”was slightly neglected. It was necessary to dismantle the malt mill, which housed the restaurant, also the so-called Japanese bridge.
In the second half of the 1970s, a decision was made to build an amphitheater for approx. 4.5 thousand square meters. viewers. The facility is called Teatr Letni im. Helena Majdaniec. Near the theater, there is a sculpture "fire birds", which was made by Władysław Hasior. In 1979, a monument to the Deed of Poles by Gustaw Zemła was presented in the park In the farthest end of the park there is the so-called Różanka - a garden that was renovated in 2007. In addition, in recent years, the park's lighting has been renewed, and several small gastronomy points have been created on its premises. There are plans to establish a restaurant.
Park of Jan Kasprowicz was entered on the provincial list of monuments in December 1994.

Jasne Błonia
A sprawling green area, created in the 1920s and dedicated to Pope John Paul II in 1995. The square is flanked on both sides by London planetrees – 213 in total, making Jasne Błonia the largest cluster of this species in Poland.
The green square was established in the years 1925 - 1927 on the lands that belonged to the Quistorp family. In the middle there is a wide strip of lawn with flower arrangements in the central part, on both sides there are alleys planted with rows of London plane trees. Further on, Jasne Błonia flows smoothly into the Kasprowicz Park, and then into Las Arkoński.
In 1979, near Piotr Skarga Steet, the Monument to the Deed of Poles was built, which became the dominant feature of the square layout. The object shows three eagles taking flight and was designed by Gustaw Zemła. The monument was to present three generations of the inhabitants of Szczecin - the Polish community living in these lands before World War II, to the pioneers of the post-war city and the generation that expanded Szczecin. The building was to express gratitude to the city's society for its rebuilding. It should be remembered that the object was commissioned by the party.
Almost ten years later, in June 1987, Pope John Paul II celebrated a mass in Jasne Błonia - this event was commemorated in 1995 with the Pope's monument. The name of the square was also changed to Jasne Błonia im. John Paul II.
The building was entered on the provincial list of monuments in December 2004.

Karnin Bascule Bridge
The original bridge was a swing structure. In 1933, it underwent a major reconstruction which added the second railway track and rebuilt the central span so that it would rise parallel to the water surface. The spans were blown up in 1945, cutting off the island from the mainland. Only the bascule section has survived to this day. In 1990, it was granted the status of an industrial monument.

Zabytkowy ryglowy kościółek pw. Matki Boskiej Częstochowskiej w Warnołęce o kubaturze 526 m3 i powierzchni zabudowy 140,7 m2 został prawdopodobnie wzniesiony w XVIII wieku, na co może wskazywać data umieszczona na dzwonie, wskazująca na rok 1727.

Lake Bartoszewo
Lake Bartoszewo is a small, stagnant reservoir, an average depth of which is approx. 1.5 m, so it is quite shallow. Plots with buildings extend along one of the edges of the lake. It is not difficult to get to the lake, because there is a firm sandy road around it, which is to streamline pedestrian, cyclist, but also car locomotion. There are three small wooden jetties, and the shores are overgrown with reeds and rushes. It is a perfect place to relax in nature. You can most often meet there anglers and the tourists barbecuing and relaxing in the shade of the numerous trees on the shores of the lake.  You can fish for tench or crucian carp there; and also for pike, but in small quantities only. You will not find direct access to the lake everywhere, so it is best to use the footbridges located around it. The bottom of the lake is quite heavily silted. Swimming in the lake is not prohibited, but the beach is not guarded. There are a few restaurants nearby that are visited in great numbers at the weekend and during the summer season. After a good meal, you can go for a walk around the lake or relax alongshore.

Lake Rusałka
Lake Rusałka is an artificial reservoir of elongated shape, formed in the Middle Ages as a result of damming up the Osówka flowing there. This was due to two water mills which were constructed in such a way that ended up on the lake as a result of their work. These were the Lübsche Mill (now non-existent) positioned on the western shore and the Słodowy [Malt] Mill (in the eastern part of the lake). The land surrounding the lake was transformed into a park in 1900 (the today's Kasprowicz Park) and the Słodowy Mill was converted into a restaurant Haus am Westendsee (from the German name of Lake Westendsee). There is also a picturesque bridge with annexes in a Japanese style over the lake. The lake was full of boats, which could be rented in the summer, but was a popular ice-skating rink in the winter. The buildings, intact after the hostilities of World War II, gradually began to fall into disrepair. The mill and its turrets on the banks of the bridge were demolished in the 1960s. An amphitheatre (the Helena Majdaniec Summer Theatre) was built in the years 1974 - 1976 on the slope descending to Lake Rusałka. Currently, the shores of Lake Rusałka are still a popular place for walks of the residents of Szczecin.

Lake water nook
A small resting place located at the beginning of the route along the flood embankments. The Chelszcząca River flows nearby and a parking lot is located.

Lighthouse
One of the tallest lighthouses in Poland was built in 1857. The building is 69 meters tall and you have to take 300 steps to reach the top.
The lighthouse was built in 1857. The construction of the lighthouse began in 1854 and lasted until 1857. On December 1, 1857, the lighthouse shone its light for the first time. The object is made of face brick, 69 meters high. Over 300 steps lead to the top of the lighthouse. It is one of the tallest lighthouses in Poland, and also on the entire Baltic coast. The tower overlooks the port, the forested coast of Międzyzdroje, and the resorts on the Uznam island. The lantern gives light with a range of 46 km. Since 1958, the lighthouse also sends a radio signal in the Mors alphabet. Currently, the lighthouse also emits red light. Currently, the lighthouse is under the supervision of the Maritime Office in Szczecin. In the years 1998-2000 the lighthouse was thoroughly renovated. The facility was made available to tourists only in 2000.  Next to the lighthouse, there is the Lighthouse and Sea Rescue Museum. The museum was established in buildings previously inhabited by lighthouse keepers. Navigational equipment can be seen in the museum. Some of the museum exhibits are available outside, e.g. old boats and anchors.

Love Lantern Ueckermünde
As a symbol of their love, couples around the world hang small padlocks with their names on bridges, towers and railings. The love locks are a custom that is now usual all over the world. Since it has taken over in some cities in the meantime, it is even banned in some communities. But not in Ueckermünde! At the love lantern in the city harbor, all couples in love have the opportunity to legally attach a padlock with their name. The key is then thrown into the water, following the international tradition - so that the love may continue forever!

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.

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.

Monument to the Deed of Poles
The Monument to the Deed of Poles is one of the most characteristic monuments in Szczecin. It was unveiled in 1979. It was funded by contributions from residents and from the A. Warski Szczecin Shipyard. Its author is the sculptor Gustaw Zemła who collaborated on its creation with the sculptor E. Kozak. The monument refers to three generations of Szczecin residents, whose memory was to be preserved by erecting the monument. The first of them is the generation of the Polish community in Szczecin from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries living abroad until the war. The second generation are Szczecin residents who contributed to the reconstruction of the city after the war. The third eagle is a symbol of the last generation that was involved in the development of industry, health care, culture, communication, and modern construction. The plinth was made by J.W. Piskorz-Nałęcki. Its total height is 22.5 m. The eagles presented in the monument weigh in total 60 tons, while the entire structure is as much as 150 tons. The monument is a tourist attraction appearing on numerous postcards, as well as an important place in the minds of the inhabitants. During many state ceremonies flowers are placed under it.

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.

Mural "Kot Gacek"
The mural not only beautifies the building's facade, but also, thanks to the use of photocatalytic paint, contributes to air purification when its surface comes into contact with it. The work was created as part of an eco-mural competition announced by Western Pomerania. The event attracted a lot of interest, with as many as 87 projects submitted. In the first stage, residents of the region cast their votes in an online poll, and then the works were evaluated by a competition committee. The results were announced on Thursday, July 17, 2025. The authors of the winning designs were Michał Szarko from Szczecin and Bartosz Podlewski from Warsaw.
The hero of the mural, Gacek the cat, was a free-roaming resident of downtown Szczecin, on Kaszubska Street, for many years. This black and white, elegant and mysterious cat had an extraordinary charisma that attracted people. He spent most of his time in a wooden booth prepared especially for him.
He gained recognition in 2020 when a video featuring him went viral on the internet. Since then, Gacek has become one of Szczecin's most famous attractions, with many tourists coming to the city just to see the famous cat from Kaszubska Street. He currently lives with his family of three and other cats, where, after completing his weight loss treatment, he leads a peaceful, retired life.

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 Technology and Transport
Founded in 2006 and located in an old tram depot, it is one of the largest museums of transport in Poland, showing an exhibition on the history of the Szczecin municipal transport system and automobile industry.
The Museum of Technology and Transport is located in the former tram depot at ul. Niemierzyńska, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century, exactly in 1907. The construction was dictated by the lack of space for the increasing number of wagons. Plots with allotment gardens and a district cemetery were designated for the investment.
The building was designed by two Berlin architects - Steinmetz and Griesbach. The gable roof with a glass front, in which a clock was placed, looks interesting. Before the outbreak of World War II, the depot was modernized twice - in 1912 and at the turn of 1929 and 1930.
The Niemierzyn depot was the first depot in Szczecin, which started working after the Second World War, it was opened in 1945. The facility is a front-end depot, there are 16 tracks inside. From 1945, Niemierzyn served only tram line No. 3, at the end of its operation also lines No. 4, 11 and 12. The last in history departure from this depot took place on October 1, 2004 - it was tram No. 11.
In 2009, the modernization of the Niemierzyn depot began, and its interiors were allocated to the Museum of Technology and Transport. A year later, the museum started operating. Today, inside the former depot, we can find historic trams, buses, cars and motorbikes. The permanent exhibitions include, among others: the exhibitions "Szczecin automotive in the years 1919-1944", "Polish automotive - vehicles of the Polish People's Republic", "Single-track vehicles from the People's Republic of Poland", "Polish prototypes" and "Vehicles of uniformed services".
The ticket prices are: PLN 10 normal ticket, PLN 5 reduced ticket, PLN 24 family ticket (1 or 2 adults and children, maximum 5 people), group ticket 5 (for a minimum of 10 people). On Tuesdays, admission is free (except for "Eureka Traffic").
The Niemierzyn depot was entered on the provincial list of monuments in November 2005.
The museum has an elevator for people with reduced mobility, which allows people in wheelchairs to go down to the exhibition located in the basement and to the cafe on the first floor. In addition, visitors to the museum can buy souvenirs at the institution's box office in addition to tickets.

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.

National Museum in Szczecin
Opened in 1913, the main building of the museum on the Chrobry Embankment is one of the landmarks of Szczecin. The museum has one of the largest collections of historic items of non-European cultures in Poland.
The building of the National Museum in Szczecin at 3 Wały Chrobrego Street is one of the most famous and representative buildings in the city. It is the center of the architectural complex of Wały Chrobrego (former Hakenterrasse) on the Odra river, designed by Wilhelm Meyer-Schwartau. The building was put into use in 1913 and until the end of World War II it was the seat of the City Museum, which exhibited archaeological and ethnographic collections, Pomeranian and European art, collections from Africa, Asia and Oceania, and natural exhibits.
In Polish Szczecin, it still serves as a museum, being first one of the buildings of the Museum of Western Pomerania, and from 1970 - the National Museum. It belongs to the most magnificent museum buildings in Poland. One of the country's largest collections of relics of non-European cultures is stored and exhibited here.

Natura 2000 – The Mouth of Oder and Szczecin Lagoon
The Special protection area of habitats “The Mouth of the Oder and Szczecin Lagoon” functions within the network of the Natura 2000 areas. It is situated at the meeting point of freshwater and seawater habitats and it has special significance for fish living in these habitats. It includes the lower part of the Oder, Szczecin Lagoon, Kamieński Lagoon and Chrząszczewska Island. The eastern coast of the lagoon is a lagoon plain, and the northern coast has a cliffy nature. Sea areas constitute approx. 85% of the surface area of Ostoja. Szczecin Lagoon together with an interesting and diverse coastal zone is an area on which numerous rare vascular plants, brown mosses and sphagnum occur, especially in Czarnociński Pool. The lagoon is a dwelling place for numerous extraordinary birds. You can come across white-tail eagle, cranes, kingfishers, terns, black and red kites, as well as heron and many others. An interesting phenomenon occurring on the eastern side of the lagoon includes coastal shallows 1-1.5 m deep, where numerous aquatic plants occur. Another phenomenon is “backwater” occurring in the lagoon, which can raise the water level by 1 metre. Apart from significant natural advantages of the area, it is also characterized by many touristic attractions. There are various architectural monuments, water sports centres, sailing harbours, beaches, as well as resorts and museums. The area of Szczecin Lagoon can be admired from many lookout points, such as the lookout towers in Nowe Warpno or a tower in the former protestant church – currently the highest lookout point in Świnoujście.

Park Solidarności w Policach
Historia Parku „Solidarności” zaczyna się w latach 90. ubiegłego wieku, ponieważ dopiero wtedy istniejący już od czasów niemieckich teren leśny zyskał miano parku w pełnym tego słowa znaczeniu. Zaczęto zagospodarowywać teren w taki sposób, aby mógł on służyć mieszkańcom miasta jako miejsce spacerów i odpoczynku. Dziś w Parku „Solidarności”, znajduje się placyk centralny z odchodzącymi od niego alejkami z brukowaną nawierzchnią. Zachowano jednak jeszcze udeptane ścieżki leśne, biegnące wśród drzew, które przywołują dawny kształt tego kompleksu. Wzdłuż alei głównej, zaraz przy wejściu do parku na rogu ul. kard. S. Wyszyńskiego ciągnie się kamienny murek, na którym zamontowane są drewniane ławeczki. W parku w większości rosną drzewa iglaste, których czołowym reprezentantem jest tutaj sosna pospolita. Z drzew liściastych zobaczyć można dostojne dęby i klony, graby i kasztanowce, a także drobne osiki oraz strzeliste topole. Przy wejściach do parku i na jego obrzeżach rosną krzewy ozdobne, wśród których wymienić można m.in.: jaśminowce wonne, irgi, berberysy czy derenie. Bardzo często zobaczyć tutaj można skaczące po drzewach wiewiórki. Na obrzeżach parku, daleko od zgiełku miejskiego, w kierunku Puszczy Wkrzańskiej można niekiedy zauważyć skrytego w zaroślach dzika.

Pier in Ahlbeck
Widely recognized as a symbol of Usedom Island, the pier in Ahlbeck originates from the 19 th century like most of the nearby villas, whose architecture is typical for holiday resorts of that period.
The Ahlbeck pier is considered the landmark of the island of Usedom and, like most of the nearby spa architecture villas, dates from the century before last.
Built in 1898, the "Centenarian" with its red roof, the four green towers and the 280-metre-long landing stage is the only remaining sea bridge of its kind on the German Baltic coast. Loriot also used this very special place for his film "Pappa ante Portas". Beside a restaurant it offers a mooring for the excursion boat trip.
Every year in July, the Ahlbeck Summer Festival and the Long Night of Music take place on the concert square and on the Ahlbeck Promenade. Visitors can look forward to various regional and national bands, a fire show, a participatory circus for children or a historical swimwear show.

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.

Polish konik

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.

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.

Promenade
The nearly 1-km long promenade runs along the shore of Nowowarpieński Peninsula. It has lighting and is under video surveillance. There are information boards installed along the way. The promenade is accessible to persons with disabilities.
The promenade in Nowe Warpno was built over several years. The first stage of the construction works was completed in 2013 – at that time 330 m of the promenade together with the lookout tower situated at the end of the promontory, at Nowowarpieńska Bay, were put into use. Two other building were also created at that time and currently they are restaurants, as well as shops with souvenirs and fishing accessories and a florist. There are places prepared to play chess and board games, and there is also a rotating sculpture of a bream. At the main entrance to the promenade from Kościuszki Street, there is free parking for passenger cars, and on the same side there is a beach on the shore of Nowowarpieńskie Lake. A further part of the promenade stretches towards the east and it is located in the southern part of the promontory. The second stage of works was completed at the beginning of 2015 and it is a 500-metre long segment, along which educational boards presenting famous sailors are placed.  The entire place is illuminated, monitored and equipped with rubbish bins and benches. It caters to the needs of the disabled.

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.

Rector's office of the University of Szczecin
The present building of the US Rector's Office was designed by construction counselor Rönnebeck in 1885. The building was erected in the years 1886-1888. The facility was erected due to the overcrowded gymnasium at today's Wielkopolska Street 14. The building was the first to be erected on a street that was not marked before.
Above the main entrance to the new building of the "König Wilkhem Gymnasium", a shell-shaped recess was created in which the bust of King William was located. Only the shell has survived to our times. There are two Latin sentences on the facade of the building: "we learn not for school, but for life" and "in a healthy body, healthy spirit".
In 1944, during the Allied air raids, the building was bombed. After the end of the war, the building was rebuilt. After the renovation, the roof structure was significantly simplified. The building was built of red bricks.
Both the former gymnasium buildings have survived to this day - now at Wielkopolska Street 14 is the seat of the Special School Complex. And in the building at Jana Pawła II Street 22a there were successively: primary school, State Educational Institution for Deaf children, Faculty of Physical Education, Teacher Training College, Institute of Physical Culture of the Pedagogical University, Faculty of Natural Sciences of the University of Szczecin, and since 1995, after a thorough renovation, the Rector's Office of the University of Szczecin.

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.

Różanka Rose Garden
The 2-hectare garden was created in 1928. In 2006, as part of a comprehensive restoration project, 9 thousand roses were planted. One of the main points of interest in the garden is the fountain with four sculptures of geese.
The Rose Garden in Szczecin was established on an area of 2 hectares in 1928 on the occasion of a gardeners' convention. Even before the outbreak of World War II, in 1935, the so-called "Bird Fountain" with sculptures by Kurt Schwerdtfeger.
During the Second World War, the facility did not suffer any special losses. Intact, after 1945 it was one of the favorite vacation spots of Szczecin's residents. This state of affairs continued until the 1970s. Later, times were slightly worse - due to the lack of money for the maintenance of the garden, the building gradually fell into disrepair. From 1983 to 2005, the Różanka area belonged to the Archdiocese of Szczecin-Kamień, in 2005 it was again in the hands of the city.
A year later, the modernization and reconstruction of the garden began in the style of the 1930s. On April 20, 2007, the facility was put into operation. Over nine thousand roses in 99 varieties were planted in the garden. In the area of Różanka we can find, among others American hornbeam, Serbian spruce which occurs only in the mountains of Bosnia and Herzegovina, maple, smooth horse chestnut, Amur cork and fruit trees. As part of the modernization, stairs, alleys and a playground were built, the "Bird Fountain" was also recreated, the main element of which are four concrete geese - three of them are original.
The Rose Garden in Szczecin was entered on the provincial list of monuments in April 2004.

Ruins of an Augustinian monastery
The monastery was founded in the 13th century after the arrival of the Augustinian friars in the area. In the 16th century, as a result of the reformation, the monastery was dissolved and the building gradually declined. The ruins are open to visitors.
The ruins of the Augustinian monastery in Police-Jasienica is a monument that reminds You of the beautiful history of these lands. This is one of the most beautiful monuments of medieval monastic architecture in West Pomerania. Its origin is connected with the presence of the Augustinians - monks brought to this land in the middle of the thirteenth century. Thanks to their activities, the areas by the river, wet until then, became utilised and the Gunica became regulated. The monks built a mill, bred sheep and pigs, as well as cultivated hops and owned several inns. They were also at the disposal of a wooden church built in the late thirteenth century, which was later rebuilt by them. The monastery itself was founded in the fourteenth century. The monastery buildings consisted of two two-storey naves and a church, which formed together a courtyard open westwards. What survived to our times are the initial foundations of buildings in the Gothic style with peripheral walls on the south and east naves to the first floor, and cellar rooms. During the Reformation in the sixteenth century, the monastery of Jasienica ceased to fulfil its functions and became secularised. At the end of the seventeenth century, it began to fall into disrepair. In the mid-twentieth century, the upper storeys were removed. Today, the area around the church and the ruins of the monastery is well maintained and cleared. Dangerous places are enclosed. The interior of the building is overgrown with shrubs and other wild vegetation, but it is available to the public and it is possible to sightsee the ruins closely. Preserved decorative window arches and arcades perfectly highlight the style which the monastery was built in. The area is encompassed by a churchyard. The ruins of the monastery are available to be seen by any visitor. Part of the building can be reached from the outside, the other remaining elements can be accessed from the courtyard of the church. This beautiful place is very often used as the background of various kinds of outdoor photo sessions. The Augustinian Fair, a regular event aiming at cultivating the culture of the former culture, especially the medieval one, has been organised for several years next to the church and ruins at the end of summer holidays. What is more, the Passion of Christ has recently started to be staged in the ruins of the church on Holy Saturday. The temple located in the neighbourhood is perfectly visible from the road because it is, in fact, built on an elevated area. The ruins of the monastery are hidden a bit deeper.

Ruins of the old synthetic fuel factory
Built one year before the outbreak of World War II, the factory produced synthetic fuel from coal for the German army. Free-of-charge guided tours of the factory are available.
The factory of synthetic petrol - Hydrierwerke Pölitz was established in 1938. Liquid fuel from coal (synthetic petrol) for the German army was produced there. In 1944, the factory covered the area of 1,500 hectares, including 200 hectares of dense technical infrastructure, from which several characteristic buildings have survived in various condition up to this day. The most recognizable structure is a coal elevator for storing semi-finished products and producing petrol. Also the framework of production halls can be seen. Ground anti-aircraft shelters and the Splitterschutzzelle single-person bunkers resembling an egg and the Westermann bunkers in a form of a cylinder ended with a pointed concrete layer have also been preserved. One may encounter complexes of silos for storing fuel too. Everything is hidden in dense groupings of trees and bushes. Some places are difficult to reach and dangerous. There are a lot of debris, rocks, and metal or cast iron fragments that stick out of the ground – that is why it is not advisable to walk among the ruins of the factory without assistance. On each Saturday, at 1:00 pm, there is a free-of-charge guided tour organized, during which it is possible to visit the factory, go underground, and see permanent exhibitions in the seat of the Association.

Sailors’ Boulevard in Nowe Warpno goes along Źródlana Street between the tenement houses in the old town towards the coast of Nowe Warpno Bay. It is a paved promenade which can be entered from the Old Town through a gate in the form of an arch topped with a bas-relief yacht. You can also get there from the yacht port through a similar gate.

Sea Cliff

Sea eagle

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.

Spa Bagiński & Chabinka

Spa park in Międzyzdroje
Created in mid-19th century, Fryderyk Chopin Spa Park has a number of rare tree species. The historic building in the park serves as the International Culture Centre.
The Spa Park was established in the mid-nineteenth century, below sea level. Rare tree species such as pyramidal oaks, plane trees and thuja trees grow in the park. The park is very well kept with lots of benches, fountains, flower beds and flower beds. Adjacent to the park is a building built in the second half of the 19th century, which served as a spa house until World War I. There were rooms for guests, a reading room, a music and ballet room. It was a famous place where many personalities of the then Germany used to come. Currently, the building houses the International Cultural Center. Numerous national and international events take place here, such as the International Festival of Choral Songs and the Gala of Stars Festival.
Since 1999, the Spa Park bears the name of Fryderyk Chopin and that is why there is a monument to the composer in the park. It is actually a bust placed on a narrow pedestal. Another monument in the Park is the Neptune Sculpture, which was situated in the very center, next to the Tourist Information. This sculpture was probably erected because Neptune in Roman mythology was the deity of waters, clouds and rain.
In the Park, we can also see a commemorative plaque from 2012. It is dedicated to Eryk von Zedtwitz, a maritime painter who lived and worked in Międzyzdroje.
Another interesting object in the Park is a flower bed representing a peacock. This facility is commonly known as Paw Tolek and is located on the square between the International Cultural Center and the Tourist Information point.
There is a Tourist Information Point in the park.

Spa Park in Świnoujście
Dating back to the late 18 th century, the 40-hectare park is located adjacent to the seaside promenade.
The Spa Park in Świnoujście is a historic landscape park with an area of 40 to 58 ha, according to various sources.
It was established at the end of the 18th century, and was enlarged in the 19th century and is closely related to the beginnings of the city.
The park is a former shoal with single pines and other trees. In the 18th century, during the regulation of Świna, the area was partially drained and various types of trees were planted on it, including pine, alder and rowan, which can be considered the beginning of the construction of the entire park.
At the end of the century, a specific area was already designated as a park. It was a square with a large square in the center, which included all the previous alleys. At the beginning of the 19th century, this area was enlarged by moving the boundaries of the park to the north and west. Then, further modernization activities were discontinued and resumed only in 1823. It happened thanks to the construction and opening of a spa house, which was decided on during the first season at the seaside resort in Świnoujście. The leader of these actions was the mayor of Pomerania himself - Johan August von Sack. It was thanks to him that Peter Joseph Lenne himself, one of the most famous garden architects in Prussia, took care of the design of the entire park. In the central point, he placed a spa house, from which all the park's alleys departed. Lenne himself imported more than 1,500 seedlings of trees and shrubs from Germany, which were planted successively along the winding paths.
The park was changing due to the development of the city and the construction of new districts. The so-called seaside district.
As the city plans from 1912 show, the park housed not only groups of beautiful trees intersected with alleys, but also a small infrastructure - kiosks, urinals or ponds with benches next to them. There was a restaurant and guesthouses nearby, and patients could freely use the fountain with spring water.
Currently, the park is dominated by old trees, estimated to be 150 years old. The vegetation of the park is a mosaic of popular and native species, along with quite exotic trees and shrubs, planted during the first construction works. There are over 60 species of trees and shrubs. The common trees here are oaks, beeches, ash trees, chestnut trees and maples. On the other hand, the less popular species in the park are: weeping beeches, Crimean linden or Caucasian wing. During the last inventory of the park, over 100 specimens of trees with monumental dimensions were recorded.
There is a PSS Społem warehouse located in the park, which is an unusual facility in the park. In addition, there are stone sculptures located between the alleys throughout the area, e.g. the famous Telesfor and bird drinkers.
Numerous and neat geometric alleys with benches run through the entire park. The area is diversified with flower beds of various shapes and sizes. The famous seaside promenade stretches along the park. The combination of a walk through the park and the promenade will allow you to get to know the charming place well.
In addition, numerous tourist routes pass through the park, such as the red Seaside Trail or the Blue Bicycle Trail around the Baltic Sea. The park also allows tourists to get to know it in all its glory through the recreational and educational path "Discover the Spa Park like you have never known". The path runs through the entire park area and is adapted for everyone (attractions for adults and children, accessible for the disabled). It starts at the playground and ends at the western breakwater.
The park is also equipped with attractions for active sports people. At the intersection of Chrobry and Sienkiewicza, an outdoor gym, football, volleyball, basketball and badminton courts are available.
It should be mentioned that renovation and conservation works are constantly being carried out in the park, as the Spa Park has been recognized as a monument of the voivodeship.

St. Marien Church Ueckermünde
The steeple of St. Marien’s Church is visible from afar before the entrance to Ueckermünde. Since 1766, the St. Marien Church stands at this point. From a predecessor building, a part of the council stalls, which dates back to 1593, has been preserved. Coats of arms and house marks of the council members let us guess their tasks today. Worth seeing in the church are also the completely painted wooden ceiling and the three beautiful chandeliers. Several large oil paintings show personalities, such as the reformers Luther and Calvin, as well as some Ueckermünde pastors. Like the paintings, the baptismal font dates from the 17th century. The altar was renovated in 1961.
In the past few years, many works have been carried out on the church building, which are important for the permanent preservation of this sacred building. The tower of the church was rebuilt in 1866 and renovated in the nineties. There are five bells in it, which could be re-poured thanks to a one-time donation campaign, as they were unfortunately defective. The roof was completely renewed. Inside, the valuable painted wooden ceiling was initially secured and restored a few years later with great effort. In 2013, the façade was extensively renovated. The church now shines again in ocher and white, the original color version of 1766.
Take a look at St. Mary's Church, attend a church service or one of the many concerts that take place here, especially in summer.

State Archives (complex of buildings) in Szczecin
The beginnings of the Szczecin archive date back to 1831, at that time it was located in the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle. In 1900 the collection was moved to its present location, a sizable building on Święty Wojciecha Street, the construction of which was financed by the Prussian authorities. The new seat allowed for the development and enlargement of the archive collection. During World War II, most of the collections were taken to Pomerania. The archive returned to work on August 1, 1945, under the Polish flag. Attempts were made to collect scattered collections and to complete new ones.
In the archive you can find a wide range of documents and materials about the city and the region, both historic and contemporary. One of the most interesting is the document from 1293 confirming the location of Szczecin under the Magdeburg Law. Some of the materials are available in digital form. The catalog of the collections is available on the website.
There is also a library with large collections concerning, in particular, Western Pomerania, magazines, and literature devoted to archival work. The archive conducts educational activities, lessons for children are organized here, the topics are books, the history of the city and Western Pomerania, genealogy and many more. Currently, there are two branches operating at the archive in Szczecin, in Stargard and Międzyzdroje.

Statue of Bartolomeo Colleoni
Bartolomeo Colleoni was a famous Venetian mercenary. His statue in Lotników Square is an exact copy of the original Renaissance piece. For many years, the statue was erected in Warsaw, but in 2002 returned to Szczecin.
The statue represents a famous Venetian condotierre (a leader of mercenary units, who formed troops at his own expense). It is one of the most impressive replicas of the most famous Renaissance works. The original statue was made by Andrea del Verrocchio. The replica was created for the need of the Municipal Museum in Szczecin in 1913. The monument was given to Warsaw as a part of support for the destroyed capital city. There, it was placed at the Academy of Fine Arts’ yard. The statue has not returned to Szczecin until 2002. In 2009, it was renovated – a weapon held in the right hand was restored.

Statue of Hans Hartig
Hans Hartig was an acclaimed German artist and honorary citizen of Nowe Warpno. His statue, located in the town square, was made in 2013 by Bohdan Ronin-Walknowski.
The monument on the market square in Nowe Warpno memorizes Hans Hartig, a famous German landscape painter and graphic who in 1927 received an award “Honorary Citizen of Nowe Warpno”. Hartig significantly contributed to the popularization of Nowe Warpno in Germany. On his paintings he captures the town and its surroundings, promoting it and encouraging people to visit. The monument presents a figure of the painter facing the town hall. In his left hand he has a palette with paint and a brush in his right hand. There is an easel with a painting of the town hall in front of the artist. Right next to it there is a chair with a box of paints placed on it. The monument was created by Bohdan Ronin-Walknowski and it was revealed in 2013.

Statue of the Helmsman Mariner
The over 4 m high copper statue was erected in 1980 in the city center in the Fountain Avenue. The statue was designed by Ryszard Chachulski.
Szczecin, as a city where the Maritime University of Szczecin is located, had to possess a monument referring with its appearance to maritime traditions of the capital city of the West Pomerania Province. According to the design by Ryszard Chachulski, on the commission of the Association of Friends of Szczecin, on proposal of Zbigniew Abrahamowicz, it was decided that an imposing copper statue representing a sailor should be erected. The plan was fulfilled in 1980. The figure looks majestic and measures, along with a pedestal, 405 cm. The sailor holds a steering wheel in his hands, and the collar of his overcoat seems to wave in the wind. The figure is not related to any specific event; it reminds the inhabitants and tourists who visit Szczecin that it is a city connected with sea and seafaring. The fragment of the Alley of Fountains, where currently stands the statue of a Mariner-Helmsman, was developed in the 1990s. In 2007, the monument underwent a refurbishment. It is surrounded by lavish vegetation and colourful bushes. Behind its back, there is one out of three fountains located in this part of the street (hence the name – the Alley of Fountains).

Szczecin City Council
The City Council is located in a historic building with a large inner courtyard from the early 20th century, adjacent to Jasne Błonia park.
The decision to build the present building of the City Hall was made in 1921. The building was to be used as the seat of the main administrative office of the Pomeranian Province. In 1924, the central part was erected, a year later the eastern wing was added, and in 1927 the remaining buildings. The whole thing was designed by dr. Eng. Georg Steinmetz, the plans assumed integrating the facility into the park established by Quistorp. The main buildings of the office surround a quadrilateral courtyard, in the eastern part there is an additional internal Courtyard.
The facility housed the offices of the governor general, provincial administrator, office director, chief chancellor and heads of technical departments. In the years 1933-1945 the complex was the seat of the NSDAP.
In the main building, in the central part, there is a representative staircase, and a telephone exchange on the ground floor. In the left wing there are large rooms that were intended for official ceremonies and meetings before the war. Currently, the City Council sessions are held in the left wing, and the most impressive room until 2014 was intended for the philharmonic hall.

The office building was erected in a neo-baroque style. Two passages have been created under the central building, leading to the park part. Initially, the facade of the building was green, and the residents colloquially called it "spinach palace" or "spinach house". In the 1960s, as a result of covering the walls with cement mortar, the building became gray. Only in 2011, a decision was made to restore the original color.

Szmaragdowe [Emarald] Lake
Szmaragdowe [Emerald] Lake is an artificial lake, which appeared as a result of a disaster which took place in 1925, in the chalk mine. The mine workers accidentally dug into ground water, which flooded the mine entirely. The name of the lake stems from the fact that it has an extraordinary colour. This is because the water contains a lot of calcium carbonate. The chalk mine belonged to Albert Eduard Toepffler. He excavated chalk for commercial purposes - he needed it in his Portland cement factory called "Stern". It was a huge plant which supplied part of Europe with cement. It is said, that when the weather is good, workers’ tools, or the carriages from the mine can still be seen on the bottom of the lake. There are also legends about a greedy Skarbek [Treasurer]. The legends say, that nearby the lake there is a hidden treasure protected by the spirit of the forest. The lake has a unique natural value. Its total depth is 18 m and the water surface is 42 m above the ground level. The total area of the lake is 28540 m². Touristic infrastructure around the lake includes: Family Trail or Fitness Tail and Polana Słoneczna [Sunny Glade] which is located nearby. Here, tourist can take a rest, relax and admire the panorama of Szczecin. It is also possible to light a bonfire there. Among other interesting sites are: ruins of Barsela tower, Wzgórze Widokowe [Observation Hill], the old railway bridge, two monuments which commemorate the production of 2 million tons of cement, and the interesting tourist site which is called “Grota Toepffera” [Toepffer’s Grotto], which was made of artificial stalactites, stalagmites and sinter columns (which are unique in Poland). The lake is often explored by divers, because they find its bottom quite interesting. Near the lake, there are two monuments of nature, the air-raid shelter, the Tourist Office and many other attractions.

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 Avenue of Stars
The Avenue of Stars was created in 1996 during the first Festival of Stars in Międzyzdroje. The avenue is a series of stone slabs with handprints made by prominent figures of Polish culture. Currently, there are more than 100 slabs.
The Avenue of Stars was established in 1996, during the first Summer Holiday Festival of Stars. World-famous places dedicated to the stars of cinema - Hollywood Boulevard and Avenue of Stars in Cannes were the inspiration for its creation.
Since then, every year in July, during next editions of the festival, the most distinguished Polish actors and famous representatives of the world of culture leave their handprints on commemorative records. Currently, there are already well over 100 of them.
The unique atmosphere of this place is also created by monuments dedicated to outstanding figures of Polish cinema, including dead stars. Among the commemorations, there are: Gustaw Holoubek's bench, a monument to Juliusz Machulski as the cashier Kwinta, and a monument to Krzysztof Kolberger.

The Bogusław Promenade
The Bogusław promenade is one of the most visited places by the Szczecin dwellers, and also one of the main landmarks of the city, where cultural or  outdoor events take place. Initially, it was planned that it would be a part of the so-called 'the heart of Szczecin'. The idea of establishing pedestrian routes in the city centre of Szczecin has never been realised. It was established in 2000 as the first pedestrian zone in the city centre. On a 200-metre-long part of Bogusława the Tenth Street, beautiful pre-war terraced houses were renovated, thereby giving the place a unique character. Numerous dining options - restaurants, pubs and nightclubs were opened along the promenade. Teatr Mały [The Small Theatre], a branch of Teatr Współczesny [the Contemporary Theatre], is also located there. Concerts and outdoor events are held on the promenade in the summer.

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 Concrete Ship
The wreck of the tanker, which was bombarded and sunk in 1945, can be seen on Lake Dąbie, near Inoujście. It owes its moniker “Concrete Ship” to the fact that its hull was made with reinforced concrete.

The Elevation of the Holy Cross Roman Catholic church in Trzebież
The history of the church in Trzebież starts in the second half of the 14th century, when the St Catherine Roman Catholic church was built in the village, in the Romanesque-Gothic style. In the second half of the 16th century, after the Reformation, the character of the church changed – Evangelical services were conducted there.  In the next years, in the mid-18th century, the church was partially rebuilt and expanded. During the reconstruction, the nave was prolonged eastwards and a baroque tower (with a spire and a cross on a golden sphere) was added. Two bells cast in Szczecin (one from 1664, the second from 1729) were suspended in the tower. During this period an elongated windows were fitted; also, the choir was added in 1793. After the end of the Second World War, the church became Polish and on September 22nd 1946, it was consecrated as the Elevation of the Holy Cross church. As a date of a church fair, September 14th was chosen. Destroyed in the turmoil of the war, the church was attempted to be rebuilt by Rev. Mieczysław Mroczkowski and the parishioners. When the parish priest was Rev. Józef Kępka, in 1949, there were mission conducted, which ended in consecrating a mission cross standing on the left side of the church entrance. In August 1951 Rev. Paweł Karchanek came to the parish; under his management two sides altars were added in the church. The subsequent parish priests also made every effort to put the church and its surroundings in order. When Rev. J. Król was the parish priest, a sacristy was refurbished; Rev J. Abramski took care of the surroundings of the church – parishioners erected a wall and the green area around the building was developed. The church was painted from the outside, and the walls were previously smoothed. In the church, there is also a historic pipe organ, renovation of which was carried out in the years 1957-1958. In the late 1990s, the church was renovated again. It has been entered into the provincial register of historic monuments (no A-546 from December 22nd, 1965); likewise, the historic clergy house from the early 19th century, located opposite to the church (no A-530 from April 25th, 1997). On the right side of the church, there is a statue of Mother of God of Comfort, made by Zbigniew Policki. The current parish priest is Rev. Mieczysław Wdowiak. The parish supervises the branch church in Niekłończyca. The church can be accessed through high steps only.

The Fisherman’s Monument was revealed in 2012.

The Ippen Villa (the Institute of National Remembrance)
The villa at 14 Piotra Skargi Street was established in 1927 for, Hermann Otto Ippen, a ship-owner. Its designer was Gustav Gauss, who designed it in a neo-baroque style with impressive ending of facades. Unfortunately, the project has not been completed because the owner decided to simplify some of the construction, just after the foundations having been built. He submitted to the building supervision services a new idea of ​​building the facility, and thus the present form is characterised by a high resistance wall and modernist form of the building with neo-baroque elements. The town took over the building from the ship-owner in the mid-30s and the assets were entrusted to General von Blaskowitzow as an official residence. He officiated there until the end of World War II. A few years later (the early 1950s), the villa began to serve the Soviet consulate, and then - the consulate of the Russian Federation until 1998. After its shutdown, the North-Western Regional Branch of Powszechny Bank Kredytowy used to operate there. Immediately after new tenants moved in, the villa was given a major overhaul. Currently, since 2009, it has been the seat of: the Departmental Public Education Office of the Szczecin branch of the Institute of National Remembrance and the Departmental Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes Against the Polish Nation. The Ippen Villa is one of the youngest villas built in the former Szczecin district of Westend. The property was inscribed on the list of immovable monuments. The founder of the company, which bought the land for a new district was Johannes Quistorp, who run business together with his son and a friend Augustus Horn. Piotra Skargi Street administratively belonged to those lands. Today, former Westend is said to have been a luxury housing estate for rich entrepreneurs.

The Loitz family house
Built in mid-16th century, the house was owned by one of the wealthiest Szczecin families. Today, it is used by the local high school for the arts.
The Loitz house was built by a merchant family from whom it was named. It represents the late Gothic and early Renaissance styles. Its owners, the Loitz family, were a wealthy family with numerous businesses in Szczecin.
According to historical sources dating back to the 15th century, they were mainly selling herring and salt. However, they conducted their business not only in Poland, but also in Great Britain, Scandinavia and even on the Iberian Peninsula. Many of the family representatives sat on the City Council and Michał Loitz was even its mayor.
In Pomerania, the family property was invested in houses, granaries and land estates. One of the additional activities that the family dealt with was, inter alia, lending at interest. Even king Zygmunt August used their services. It was he who, after his death, partially led to the bankruptcy of the family, as the Loitzes had not been repaid.  Another reason was the price revolution and deficit trade with Silesia. The tenement house was built in the years 1539-1547 by order of Hans Loitz. However, it soon belonged to the family's estate, because as a result of bankruptcy, the aforementioned initiator of its construction had to secretly leave the city. In 1572 the houses were taken over by the Pomeranian dukes. In its further history, the tenement house was also the property of a Swedish councilor and two Swiss, who ran a confectionery on its premises. It was bombed during the Second World War. It was rebuilt in 1953 and transferred to the Secondary School of Fine Arts.
Currently, the Loitz House still functions as a school and is open to visitors. You can admire the works of local artists. The most characteristic feature of the building are its sloping windows in the staircase, decorated with unusual traceries, different from the others. The façade of the building was painted orange after 2000. Another interesting feature is the Renaissance portal which is one of the most beautiful and valuable in the whole Pomerania. Another noteworthy decorative element of the tenement house is a copy of the "Conversion of St. Paul" relief. Its original is at ul. Staromłyńska at the National Museum in Szczecin.

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 Pope John Paul Ii
The monument was unveiled on June 18th, 1995. It is situated in place where Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass during his visit in Szczecin on June 11th, 1987. The sculpture was made of bronze. It was designed by Czesław Dźwigaj, who was a creator of similar monuments located in the West Pomerania Province. He was assisted by Stanisław Latour. The figure of the Pope is shown in liturgical vestment; in one hand he holds a cross and his second hand is raised in a famous gesture of salutation. On the pedestal, there is a papal coat of arms, the coat of arms of Szczecin, and a quotation from a homily delivered during the Pope’s memorable visit: “...Family is strong with God, country is strong with family...”.

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 Natura 2000 area - Police - channels
Police - channels is a special habitat protection area, which is a network of underground channels with a length of approx. 4 km. The channels are a remnant of Hydrierwerke Pölitz, a German pre-war synthetic fuel factory. The area covers an area of ​​100.25 hectares and operates within the Natura 2000 network. There are free guided tours organised, during which you can visit the already mentioned fuel factory. The area of Police - channels is the largest underground overwintering areas of bats in West Pomerania. Shelter during the winter is found there by six species of bats such as serotonine bat, one of the biggest bats in Poland; but also noctule, Daubenton's bat, brown long-eared bat, or barbastelle. Annually, 1300 of these mammals arrive there. They overwinter in dark underground corridors, away from human centres. In spring, the local bats feed mostly on the surrounding Łarpia River. Supervising the observation of the rules applicable in that area and taking care of the bats belong to the duties of the Salamandra Association, actively supported by the Association of Friends of the Police Land Skarb, which does not only promote the history of Police and a former factory, but also cares about the ecological and natural character of the area. The trips organised by the Association do not include visits to the channels where bats live and overwinter. Walking on your own through the ruins of the factory and the protected area is not desirable because of the dangerous metal and concrete components protruding from the ground, and to  ensure peace to protected species.

The Observation Tower in Stepnica

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 Palace in Karszyn
The Palace in Karszyn is situated near the historic half-timbered church of St. Hubert, in quiet and picturesque surroundings. You cannot see the building from the province road even though it is only 300 m from it. The building was built in the French Neorenaissance style at the end of the 19th century by the von Enckevorth family, the owners of the property in Karszyn. After the 2nd World War the nearby property together with the palace was nationalized. In the 70’s of the 20th century the palace was generally renovated, transformed and assigned to function as a facility of the Border Troops. In the period after the political transformation, after 1989 the facilities were manager by the Pomeranian Department of Border Guard in Szczecin. Currently the palace is managed by the Stanisław Staszic’s Pomeranian Library in Szczecin, which has their storage library there. The facilities constitute a place for cultural meetings, conferences, exhibitions and outside events. Around the residence there is a beautiful historic park. Considering the shape of the building itself, it is a two story building with an attic covered with galvanized sheet metal mansard roof and with dormer windows providing light to the attic. The building has a basement. You enter the building through a porch, to which several stairs lead. The palace is made of red brick. In the posterior façade there are two side risalits: next to the northern side elevation – there is a square three-storey tower, and next to the southern elevation – there is a single-story semi-circular outhouse. In the 70’s of the 20th century the building was renovated inside and it lost its initial nature. Wooden stairs were replaced with reinforced concrete stairs. The majority of windows and doors were replaced. It is worth highlighting that in the palace the original equipment was not preserved.

The permanent exhibition of white-tailed sea eagles
The white-tailed sea eagle is a symbol of the Wolin National Park. It is also known as sea eagle or erne. A couple of sea eagles can be found in the park behind the Museum of Natural Sciences. From the beginnings of the Wolin National Park, live specimens of the species have been exhibited. They live in a large, spacious aviary. They are unable to live in nature, and the Chief Nature Conservator gave his consent to keep them as education and research objects. Next to the aviary, there are educational panels and a wooden shelter.

The Pier
The history of the pier in Międzyzdroje started in 1885. It was then a not large wooden jetty, extended in 1906, when the wooden structure was 300 metres long (according other sources - 370). During the Great War, it was blown up by sappers and it was rebuilt in 1920 as a 200 meter long structure.
Repeatedly destroyed by storms and adverse weather conditions, the pier was closed in the second half of the 1980s and the platform was pulled down. In 1994, the construction of a new pier began; it was divided into two stages and eventually finished in 2004.
Nowadays, the pier in Międzyzdroje is 395 metres long and is one of the longest in Europe. It is made of reinforced concrete and has the status of a harbour for tourist ships sailing out to Świnoujście and to German seaside towns of Ahlbeck and Heringsdorf.

The Promenade
The promenade is a pre-war boulevard that used to separate the beach from the health resort area. Currently, it is a bit inland.

The St Peter and St Paul the Apostles Roman Catholic church in Police-Jasienica
The St Peter and St Paul the Apostles parish church in Police-Jasienica is a building that is really conspicuous, not only due to its architecture, but also because a place where it is situated. Elevated high above the street, it is a building that dominates over the town. Its beginnings as a wooden church date back to the end of the 13th century. After a fire, which damaged the building in the 14th century, the church was rebuilt in stone. However, over the years, it fell in disrepair in the late 17th century. The church was renovated and expanded in 1725, referring with its form to the Gothic style. During this renovation, a tower was added on the western side of the building. Unfortunately, in the second half of the 19th century, the church was again struck with a fire. After these events, a new tower had to be erected. It was located above the nave and was topped with a sphere on which a cross was situated. In this period, the presbytery was also added on the eastern side of the building. Up to this day, there is a painting from 1858 entitled “Christ speaking with Maria and Marta” (oil on canvass). The building was consecrated as a Roman Catholic church on June 29th, 1947, and since then, each year a church fair has been organized on the anniversary of the event. The church in Police-Jasienica has been entered into the West Pomeranian provincial register of historic monuments (under the number A-500 from 5.07.1958). The current parish priest is Rev. Waldemar Szczurowski. The parish supervises a branch church in Tatynia. The church’s driveway is located on a flat ground.

The Wolin National Park
The Wolin National Park was established by the decision of the Council of Ministers on March 3rd, 1960. It was set up thanks to efforts of a forester Mieczysław Tarchalski. He designed the guidelines of establishing the Park, prepared necessary documentation and a draft of the regulation. Originally, the Park covered the area of 4,691 ha. In 1996, it was expanded by an area of a nautical mile of the Baltic coastal waters, the delta of the Świna River along with an archipelago of islands, and a part of the waters of the Kamień Lagoon. In this way, the Wolin National Park became the first Polish marine Park. Currently, the entire area of the Park amounts to 10,937 ha.
The land part of the Park was shaped during the last glaciation period over 10,000 years ago. It is not, however, a static landscape. There are still some forces changing the appearance of the Park, which consists of three types of landscape. The first type is a strip of frontal moraine hills along the Baltic shores. The cliffs stretch the length of 15 km, and the highest culmination amounts to 93 m. They are subject to constant abrasion – washing away by sea waves. In addition, they are exposed to wind and waters flowing down their slopes. This results in receding of the shoreline into the land even by 1 metre per year. The moraine hills located away from the shore constitute the major part of the Park’s area. The highest peak is Grzywacz (115 m above sea level). The second type of landscape is the delta of the Świna River. An archipelago of islands and islets is divided with numerous straits. Each year, the arrangement of the bottom changes; new islets and shallows appear. The last type of landscape is a lakeland with eskers and kames in the vicinity of Warnowo. There are lakes Warnowo Zachodnie, Warnowo Wschodnie, Czajcze, Domysłowskie, Zatorek, and Wisełka located in this part of the Park.
42.5% of the area of the Wolin National Park is covered by forests. The forest stand is dominated by pines, beeches, and oaks. Trees are mostly old, because on average the forest is 130 years old. Stand characteristic of this area are Pomeranian beech forests and a seaside crowberry forest. Many valuable parts of the Park are protected; for example, grassy Pomeranian beech forests with wood melick, or an orchid beech forest. Small areas with the complexes of vegetation of sand dunes, salt marshes, and xerothermic bushes, as well as water, rush, and peat bog plants can also be found in the Park.
The area of the Park is very interesting for ornithologists. It is situated on a bird migration route between the areas of North-East Europe and Asia and the areas of Western and Southern Europe. Oystercatchers, ruffs, various species of stints, grebes, or loons can be found there.

The Zielonka scenic hill
The Zielonka Hill’s height amounts to 81 m above sea level. The hill was created as a result of moving back of a continental ice-sheet over 10,000 years ago. An incredible view spreads from the hilltop. It is the only place from which one can see the Baltic Sea, the regressive delta of the Świna River, the Szczecin Lagoon and the waters of Lake Wicko Wielkie. When visibility is good, it is possible to see a German town of Ahlbeck, located just next to Świnoujście. The uniqueness of the place was confirmed by the Naturefriends International Association awarded the panorama spreading from the hill the “Landscape of the Year 1993/94” title.
It should be mentioned that also the “land of 44 islands” on the Świna River can be seen from the Zielonka Hill. These islands are included in the so-called “European bird refuge”, constituting therefore one of the most important areas of the Wolin National Park.

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.

U-boat dock
The German submarine base was built in 1942, replacing the old ferry dock. The U-boat dock is now open to visitors.
The base of German submarines (U-Boots) was established in 1942, in the place of the former ferry harbour. A ferry from the Uznam island to the Karsibór island plied since 1881. When the German navy took over the area, it was completely rearranged. The entrance to the dock was placed from the Stara Świna River. The harbour, from its beginnings, served as a base for training and auxiliary ships. The vessels that moored in the harbour included the U-Boots of the 4th Training Flotilla from Szczecin, the armed KFK cutters from the KFK-Schulflottille, and training torpedo boats (S-Boots). In 1945, there were the AFP artillery ferries from the 8th Flotilla in the base. In 1944, the base on the Karsibór island was complemented with a barracks complex for the navy cadets (Schnellboot-Lehr-Division). They had a practical training on board the torpedo boats and the KFK cutters. The base used the piers of the U-Boot dock. The last U-Boots were stationed in the base until the middle of April 1945. Nowadays, tourist can see a well-preserved mooring pier and quays surrounding the dock. Nearby the dock, there are also the ruins of a workshop hall and of barracks. At the end of a concrete platform, at the confluence of the Stara Świna and Świna River (the Piastowski Canal), there is a navigational sector light in the form of a small lantern painted red.

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.

Usedom World of Tractors
This place is a paradise for farming and agricultural technology enthusiasts, displaying tractors of various makes and models, both indoors and on the yard outside the building.

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.

Velo Baltica - kilometr zero
Cross-border promenade between Świnoujście and the municipality of Heringsdorf
The beginnings of cooperation aimed at creating this promenade date back to 2007, when the city of Świnoujście and the municipality of Heringsdorf began preparations for a joint project. On 29 October 2010, a ceremony was held to mark the start of work on the cross-border promenade.
The project connected the promenades of Świnoujście and Ahlbeck, creating a joint Polish-German route nearly 12 km long, stretching from Bansin to Świnoujście's ‘windmill’, i.e. the ‘Stawa Młyny’ navigation point on the western breakwater. At the border crossing, there is a symbolic gate connecting the two nations.
The promenade also marks the beginning of the Polish section of EuroVelo 10 and 13 (Velo Baltica), formerly known as R-10.

Western Fort
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.

The fountain, located in the central point of Orła Białego Square, was erected in 1732. It was designed by Johann Friedrich Grael and made by Johann Konrad Koch and a stone mason named Angerer.
The project of the fountain was made by J. F. Grael, and the building itself - by the sculptor J.K. Koch and stone mason Angerer. It was founded in 1732. It was then a part of the first aqueduct in the town. The shape of its base resembles a four-leaf clover, which can be a symbol of good luck.  At each of the corners of the clover there used to be griffins supporting the figure of an eagle rising in the air and holding a lizard and a tortoise. Its outstretched wings were once a symbol of imperial care over the residents.  Water in the fountain flows out from the beak of the eagle, and also from four gargoyles. The fountain has been renovated several times.

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.

“Skarb” History Museum
Founded in 2010, the museum is located in two post-WW2 bunkers. The exhibition is divided into four sections: the history of the Police region, industrial technology, armaments and documents.
The "Treasure" historical museum is located in the area of the former German Hydrierwerke Pölitz synthetic gasoline factory, at ul. Cooperative. It is located near the provincial road No. 114, at the exit from Police towards Tanowo. You can get to the place by bus lines 102, 103 and 107, which stop at the "Police Tanowska Szkoła" stop, right next to Junior High School No. 1, located several dozen meters from the destination.
The "Treasure" museum is a relatively young institution, established in 2010. It is the result of work undertaken by the "Skarb" Association of Police Land, based on the collection, storage, conservation and access to cultural goods related primarily to the history of the Police Land.  The museum, as well as the seat of the Association itself, are located in two shelters, where you can come individually or with a group and see exhibitions devoted to the history of the city, the Hydrierwerke Pölitz factory, and the history of the camps located in Police, where prisoners worked hard at the production of synthetic petrol . The Police Museum is divided into four thematic sections, the first of which is the Regional History Department, which collects documents and items related to the history of the Police Land. The second section is the Department of Applied Technology, where you can see technological or electronic relics, including old telephones, electronic tools, computers and household items. The next section is the Weapons Department, which may be of particular interest to the male part of the visitors, because there are military items here, such as white, classic or armored weapons, as well as uniforms, helmets and protective masks. The last one is the Documents Department, which houses historical documentation and photographs, mostly from the period of World War II. A visit to the "Treasure" Museum is a perfect complement to the state of knowledge of the inhabitants of the counties and localities about the history of this area. The "Skarb" Association, the originator of the museum, also organizes the so-called "Meetings with history". These are mainly open lectures conducted by historians and enthusiasts of the history of the region and more. Schoolchildren will also find something for themselves here, and a visit to the museum with a guide is an obligatory element of history lessons for young Poles. Visiting the museum is free of charge and is an integral part of the 3-hour tour of the old synthetic gasoline factory organized by the Association, during which the guide shows visitors around the ruins of the complex. Going out with a guide takes place every Saturday and ends with a shared outdoor meal by the fire. The association provides the place and materials needed to light a bonfire, however, provisions should be organized on their own.
