Kościół Mariacki w Szczecinie, Gothic church in Szczecin, Poland.

The church featured a three-nave hall structure with a polygonal presbytery and a single tower rising above its architectural composition.

The original chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary existed in 1243, and Duke Barnim I Gryfita funded the construction of a stone church in 1263.

The church complex housed the Szczecin Pedagogium, an educational institution that trained humanists and maintained a significant library collection.

After multiple fires and reconstructions, including severe damage in 1677 and 1789, the church was ultimately demolished between 1829 and 1830.

The church served as the main burial site for the Gryfita dynasty until 1346, with Duke Barnim I interred in its crypt after his death in 1278.
