12 attractions

Solo in Trzebiatów suits a quiet day: a Gothic parish church, a defensive tower, three hospital chapels and a palace by the Rega.

Trzebiatów is compact: strolling around it alone fills half a day and nothing has to be reserved. The monuments stand close together around the market square and along the old walls, and most are places of worship, visited in silence. A general overview of the town is in things to do in Trzebiatów, and ideas for travelling alone across the region are gathered in solo travel in West Pomerania.

What can you see in Trzebiatów on your own in half a day?

Start at the market square, where Ratusz w Trzebiatowie (Town Hall) of 1701 stands, built on the remains of a Gothic predecessor. From here it is a short way to the parish church, and on the route you pass fragments of old walls described in the article on the walls and gates of the region's towns. The whole is shown by Układ urbanistyczny Trzebiatowa (Urban layout of Trzebiatów), the old-town grid of streets with a market square and a ring of walls, entered in the register of monuments.

Which churches and chapels in Trzebiatów are worth seeing?

Seven entries with the solo tag are churches and chapels, and five of them lie in the town itself. Especially interesting are three Gothic hospital chapels, each with a different fate: one is now a Greek Catholic church, another an Orthodox one, the third a dwelling.

The parish church

Kościół Macierzyństwa Najświętszej Marii Panny w Trzebiatowie (Church of the Motherhood of the Blessed Virgin Mary) at Jana Pawła II 2 is a hall-type Gothic church with a very tall tower and a bell from the late fourteenth century. It also serves as a Marian shrine. It is the largest in town and visible from afar, so it is easy to find without a map.

Three hospital chapels

Kaplica Świętego Ducha w Trzebiatowie (Chapel of the Holy Spirit) at Wojska Polskiego 44 was where the Pomeranian diet met in 1534, and since 1956 it has belonged to the Orthodox community. Kaplica św. Gertrudy w Trzebiatowie (St Gertrude's Chapel) has been a Greek Catholic parish church since 1957. Kaplica św. Jerzego w Trzebiatowie (St George's Chapel) at Kołobrzeska 6 stood by a hospital for lepers and, after a rebuild in the nineteenth century, is a residential house, so it is seen from outside.

Younger churches and ruins

Kościół św. Jana w Trzebiatowie (St John's Church) is neo-Gothic from the early twentieth century, raised for an Old Lutheran congregation. Quiet and a view over the river are offered by Ruiny kościoła na Wyszkowie w Trzebiatowie (Ruins of the Church on Wyszkowo Hill), the remains of a pilgrimage church on a hill above the Rega. Similar places are described in the text on church ruins in the region.

Where in Trzebiatów can you see defensive walls and history?

Baszta Kaszana (Kaszana Tower) on Wąska street is a cylindrical brick tower from the fourteenth century, part of the old fortifications on the Rega side. It can be visited in the summer season, and a dungeon lies at ground level. A legend connected with the bastion is told in the text legends of sieges and walls.

Pałac w Trzebiatowie (Palace) at Wojska Polskiego 67 was raised where a ducal stronghold, a convent of Premonstratensian nuns and a Renaissance castle once stood. Inside is Muzeum Pałacowe (Palace Museum) with displays in the Hall and the Ducal Room, and next to it a culture centre, a library and a gallery. It is the best place for a rainy hour.

Does the selection include another place with the same name?

Yes, Kościół Narodzenia NMP w Trzebiatowie (gmina Stargard) (Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary) appears on the list. It is a fifteenth-century fieldstone church in another village of the same name near Stargard, so it does not belong to a walk through the town beside the Rega.
