Wały Chrobrego
A roughly 500-meter-long observation terrace above the Oder River. Three grand early 20th-century buildings and the river port's panorama make it a signature view of Szczecin.
Wały Chrobrego (also known as Hakenterrasse) was built between 1902 and 1921. It runs for about 500 meters along the high west bank of the Oder River. Along the terrace stand the National Museum, the West Pomeranian Voivodeship Office, and the Maritime Academy, all neo-Renaissance buildings. Below them are steps, fountains, and a riverside walkway. From here you can overlook the river port, Łasztownia Island, and the boat docks. Oder River cruises depart from below the terrace. The terrace is open to the public free of charge all day, and sunset and night views are best.
