Skarszewy, Administrative center in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland.

Skarszewy sits between lakes and forests, featuring Gothic architecture and medieval stone walls surrounding the town center.

The settlement received town rights in 1320 and served as a base for the Knights Hospitaller before transferring to Teutonic Order control in 1370.

The Gothic Church of Saint Michael the Archangel stands as the primary religious monument, displaying regional architectural elements from the 14th century.

The town hall manages both urban and rural districts, providing services to 14,412 residents across an area of 169 square kilometers.

Józef Wybicki, who wrote the Polish national anthem, studied law at the local court between 1762 and 1765.
