The Polish city and port of Swinoujscie lies on the Baltic Sea coast and on the Szczecin Lagoon, in the north west of the country. Most of the city is built on the islands of Usedom and Wolin, but also on other smaller islands, with the largest being Karsibor island. The German resort of Ahlbeck on Usedom is a close neighbour of Swinoujscie and are linked by a road and a promenade that is 12 km long.
Interesting sights in the city include the Museum of Deep Sea Fishing which is located in the former town hall. The museum's exhibits contain a history of sea fishing, sea animals, the town and its surrounding area and old navigation equipment. Also in the city is the Angel's Fort which was built between 1845 and 1858 and is a replica of Hadrian's Mausoleum in Rome. Concerts and art exhibitions are held at the Western Fort which was built between 1843–1863. The Fort has been modernised a few times in the past, and from after World War II until 1962 it was the headquarters of the Red Army.
Swinoujscie has the largest and most modern ferry terminal in Poland, with regular connections to destinations in Denmark and Sweden.
The Swedish city of Malmo seems to be centred around its Old Town which is known as the Gamla Staden and is bordered by a lovely canal. In this area there are three squares which are popular with tourists and are surrounded by shops and restaurants. The squares are named Stortorget (Big Square), Lilla Torg (Little Square) and Gustav Adolfs Torg (Gustav Adolfs Square). Other popular attractions in the city is the 15th century Malmo Castle, which is called Malmohus Slott by the locals, the City Hall which overlooks the Big Square and the Turning Torso, which is the tallest building in Scandinavia and is rather eye catching and according to some, bizarre. The city is also a great base from which to explore other parts of Sweden with many tourists choosing to take day trips outside of the city.
The city can trace its origins back to 1275 when it is thought to have been founded as a quay or ferry berth for the Archbishop of Lund.
