Chojna Hillfort

Highlight • Historical Site

Also called the Klęskowo settlement, it is located in the Bukowa Forest on the Chojna hill, 74 m above sea level. On its flattened and elongated peak, we can see an early medieval settlement from the 9th-12th centuries. The poorly legible, damaged embankments with a length of 300 m surround a peak with an area of 0.75 ha, covered with pine and beech.
According to legend, there was a mighty castle of robber knights attacking all travelers, ruthlessly looting them. The cursed city and its crew fell into the ground.

Bukowa Forest

Highlight • Forest

The Szczecin Landscape Park „Puszcza Bukowa” covers an area of approximately 15 km in length and 10 km in width, extending along the southern borders of Szczecin, up to the Płonia River in the east. Most of this area is occupied by the Wzgórza Bukowe (Beech Hills) overgrown with Puszcza Bukowa (Beech Forest).
The northern and central part of the forest is the most elevated and undulating, with varied terrain, featuring high and steep hills intersected by ravines and valleys, through which forest rivers and streams flow.
The flora of Puszcza Bukowa includes approx. 1250 plant species, including 53 species that are under full protection. In the forest, we can also encounter about 140 bird species, a dozen mammal species, and a few reptile species. Among the birds, we can find the black stork, white-tailed eagle, lesser spotted eagle, or red kite. The butterfly fauna is also very rich here, with approx. 400 species.

Emerald Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

A concrete bridge, a remnant of the tracks of a railway transporting spoil from a former chalk and marl mine, operated by the nearby Portland cement factory "Stern" owned by the Toepffer family, established in 1862. In 1925, a sudden overflow of groundwater into the excavation occurred through a layer of permeable sand. The excavation was quickly taking on water. People were evacuated immediately. The excavation was flooded. A lake was created.
The bridge after major renovation. An inscription with the date of construction of the bridge - 1890 - was left.

Szmaragdowe Lake is located on the outskirts of Szczecin, near the Zdroje housing estate. The name comes from the characteristic greenish color of the water, which is due to the high lime content - the lake was created on the site of a former chalk mine. In 1925 the mine was flooded by water - at the bottom of the lake there are supposedly still flooded mining equipment. Narrow-gauge railway wagons, which transported the output from the mine, used to drive on the picturesque concrete bridge on the shore of the lake. The lake is constantly fed by groundwater. Currently, its maximum depth reaches 18 meters.
