Darlowo
Darłowo lies along the Wieprza River close to its Baltic Sea outlet, where a broad, low-lying coast meets the historic town and its harbour district of Darłówko. The beach and engineered breakwaters are part of a working seaside setting shaped by the river mouth as much as by tourism. Inland, Darłowo preserves the Castle of the Pomeranian Dukes, a Gothic residence begun in the 14th century and closely associated with Eric of Pomerania, who later became king of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Brick churches, a compact old centre and the Baltic shore place the town firmly in the cultural landscape of Poland’s West Pomeranian coast.

Few towns in West Pomeranian Voivodeship have a history as closely tied to Baltic maritime trade as Darłowo. The town stands on the Wieprza River, a short distance from its outlet into the Baltic Sea at the port district of Darłówko. Its brick Gothic Dukes of Pomerania Castle, begun in the 14th century, recalls Darłowo’s place within the medieval Duchy of Pomerania and later served as a residence of Eric of Pomerania. In the old town, St Mary’s Church preserves the duke’s tomb, while the river and harbour continue to shape the town’s connection with the coast.

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War. The Białowieża Forest preserves one of Europe’s last primeval lowland forests and is home to European bison. Follow how Poland’s regions relate to one another by browsing webcams across the country.
