About Szczecin
Szczecin is a city on the Oder River in northwest Poland. It's known for its 19th-century Wały Chrobrego, or Chobry Embankment, and the renovated Pomeranian Dukes' Castle, now a cultural center. The vast St. James Cathedral has a 14th-century triptych, stained-glass windows and a tower with city views. Nearby is the Gothic Old Town Hall, hosting The National Museum's exhibitions on Szczecin's history and culture.
