Seventy-Three Metres above the City…

The tower of the National Museum in Szczecin at Wały Chrobrego will be available from June 1st 2022.

To enter it, you have to ascend 230 stairs. The height of the building with the dome is 54 m, and the height of the River Oder escarpment is 19 m, so standing on the observation deck we are 73 m above the surface of the river. 

 The Museum building is one of the architectural icons of Szczecin. The famous urban and architectural layout of the city, known as the Haken's Terrace (now Wały Chrobrego), was designed by Wilhelm Meyer-Schwartau. The building was put into use in June 1913 and until the end of World War II it was the seat of the Stadtmuseum Stettin, which exhibited archaeological and ethnographic collections, Pomeranian and European art, collections from Africa, Asia and Oceania and natural exhibits. In Polish Szczecin, it has served as a museum, firstly as one of the buildings of the Museum of West Pomerania, and since 1970 - the National Museum. It belongs to the most eye-catching museum buildings in Poland. One of the largest collections of relics of non-European cultures in Poland is stored and exhibited here. Since autumn 2021, the building has also been housing new permanent exhibitions: "Mystery of Light. Medieval art in Pomerania” and “Hidden Messages. Art in Pomerania in the 16th and 17th Centuries ”.
