Szczecin Must-Sees

Szczecin’s architectural landscape spans from the 14th-century Gothic Cathedral and St. John the Evangelist Church to the Renaissance Pomeranian Dukes' Castle. Historical fortifications include the ornate 18th-century Royal and Harbor Gates. Modern landmarks feature the award-winning Szczecin Philharmonic and the subterranean Dialogue Centre Upheavals museum. The city also offers a look into wartime history within a massive five-level underground shelter and cultural exhibits at the National Museum.
