View from town centre. I stayed at Korsarzy street when I took this picture.
This is my birth town. Pictures have been taken by me and one of my friends at various seasons - some of them were taken in summer, the other ones in autumn and winter.

These uploaded photos of Szczecin show the renovated Pomeranian Dukes' Castle and just a small piece of town. Enjoy (-:

Usually I'm spending my holidays over there but that time me & Ania decided to travel just across Europe and visit some countries whose are located at the north and east coast of Baltic Sea - From Finland to Poland and eventually come back to Szczecin.
