Koszalin, Hanseatic trade city in Western Pomerania, Poland

The Dzierżęcinka River flows through this administrative center, located 12 kilometers from the Baltic Sea at an elevation of 32 meters.

Founded in 1266 with Lübeck law rights, Koszalin joined the Hanseatic League in 1386, establishing strong trading connections across the Baltic region.

The Koszalin Festival of Film Debuts, running since 1973, presents works by emerging directors at the beginning of their careers.

The Koszalin University of Technology and multiple vocational schools make this city a regional center for technical and professional education.

The city maintains a direct connection to medieval maritime commerce through its preserved Hanseatic architecture and street layout from the 14th century.
