About location

Gorzów Wielkopolski sits on the Warta River in Lubusz Voivodeship, Poland, where the compact centre rises from the riverbanks towards wooded slopes. The city developed beside a medieval river crossing and was known as Landsberg an der Warthe until 1945. Its defining historic landmark is the Gothic Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose tower stands above the old centre. The broad Warta shapes Gorzów’s plan, with bridges, embankments and riverside routes connecting the central districts. Gorzów is also a cultural centre for northern Lubusz, home to the Gorzów Philharmonic.

Country Poland

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.
