Stare Pole, Administrative village in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

The village was known as Altfelde during German rule before becoming part of Poland after World War II. This transition marked a turning point in local history.
The village maintains traditional agricultural practices while serving as the administrative center for the surrounding Gmina Stare Pole municipality.
The village is easiest to reach by car since it sits on flat terrain with good local road connections. Visitors should expect a quiet rural setting without major tourism facilities.
Paleontologist Alfred Eisenack, who discovered tiny fossil marine structures called chitinozoans, was born here in 1891. His scientific work connected this small village to important discoveries in earth sciences.
