About this place

Palace under the Heads is a historic neoclassical building in Szczecin, Poland, set at 1 Staromłyńska Street and 2 Polish Soldier Square in the Old Town neighbourhood. It is made up of two joined tenement houses from the 18th century, and today it serves cultural functions in the city. A visit here works well as a short sightseeing stop.

Na miejscu można liczyć przede wszystkim na:

  • The neoclassical façade and the unusual form of two conjoined tenements, which give the building its distinctive historical character.
  • The Museum of Contemporary Art, a branch of the National Museum in Szczecin, for those who want to combine a heritage stop with modern art.
  • The cultural centre of Dom Kultury 13 Muz, which adds an active cultural layer to the site beyond its architecture.

If you are planning a walk through Szczecin’s Old Town, this is a good place to include, especially if you like combining architecture with museum visits. Comfortable shoes will help, since the area is best explored on foot. It is a solid choice for travelers interested in history, culture, and a calm city sightseeing break.
