Frequently Asked Questions
At the terminal about a kilometre and a half from the centre: fifteen minutes on foot or a short taxi ride. You arrive in Szczecin by river, not by sea, after some sixty kilometres up the Oder.
The Wały Chrobrego terrace, the castle of the Dukes of Pomerania and the rebuilt old town, then the boulevards of the centre. A boat loop on the Oder rounds off the day well.
Half a kilometre of terrace, balustrades and monumental staircases built above the Oder in the early 20th century. It is the finest viewpoint around, almost opposite the terminal.
The Griffin castle, named after the dynasty that ruled Pomerania for five centuries. Destroyed in the war and rebuilt stone by stone, it has regained its white courtyards, scrolled gables and astronomical clock.
Because of its layout: wide tree-lined avenues and circular squares from which streets radiate like stars, adopted after the fortifications were demolished in the 19th century. Grunwaldzki Square is the finest example.
No, that is a local legend. The layout openly draws on the Paris of the grand boulevards, but the baron had nothing to do with it. The story really speaks to residents' pride in their little Baltic Paris.
Pasztecik szczeciński, an elongated fried pastry stuffed with meat or cabbage, served scalding from counters unchanged in decades. And paprykarz szczeciński, a spread of fish, rice and paprika that became a national classic.
Yes, white excursion boats leave from below the Wały Chrobrego for a loop of the port: shipyards, harbour islands and, further out, the calm waters of Lake Dąbie.
Rebuilt gabled houses in bright colours around the Gothic town hall, whose flamboyant brickwork holds the local history museum and its Hanseatic collections.
It is an overlooked city, and it knows it. Locals have a saying: those who stop by chance come back by choice. Do not look for an intact old centre here, but for a green and surprising port city.
