Monuments in Gryfice: the Stone Gate, the High Gate, the Gunpowder Tower and stretches of the Old Town walls above the river Rega.
All four sites belong to the medieval fortifications of Gryfice. Walking round them takes little time, and two of the gates are open to visitors today.
The Stone Gate from the 14th century sits at the north end of the Old Town, and provincial road 109 passes under it. It offers rooms to sleep in, and its clock plays a bugle call. The High Gate from the 15th century closes the Old Town from the south and is home to tourist information as well as the "Brama" Museum and Gallery, so you can step inside.
The Gunpowder Tower is a Gothic two-cylinder tower on Nadbrzeżna street near the Rega. Since the 2007 renovation it has a viewing balcony. The Town Walls once ringed the Old Town for about 650 metres, and you can follow their fragments along the Rega and several streets. The article Walls and gates of Gryfice, Trzebiatów and Goleniów covers the fortifications of several towns.
The town's churches are gathered on the page churches and monasteries in Gryfice, with a general overview under monuments and things to do in Gryfice.
Yes, the High Gate holds a tourist information point plus a museum and gallery, and the Stone Gate offers lodging.
