St.Peter and Paul's Church

Church of Sts. Peter and PaulThis is the oldest church in Szczecin belonging to the Polish-Catholic community.

The Church was built in 1124, during the first mission of St.Otto the Bishop of Bamberg who brought Christianity to Pomerania. Built outside the town walls, first as a wooden church, it was conceived as a place of worship for the Slavonic inhabitants of suburbs. It was as late as in 1425-1440 that it became a brick construction. The reportedly rich and ornate interior decoration of the church perished completely. The brick elevation and the sacristy retained remains of late-Gothic decorations in the form of ceramic consoles adorned with masks
