Skwierzyna, Municipal town in Lubusz Voivodeship, Poland
Skwierzyna sits at the confluence of the Obra and Warta rivers in western Poland, surrounded by forests and lakes. The town spreads across flat terrain with green spaces that characterize its layout.
The settlement began as a Slavic fishing community on a trade route between Szczecin and Kraków. It received town privileges in 1296 and grew into a regional trading center.
The Gothic Church of Saint Nicholas houses the Our Lady of Klewań icon, drawing pilgrims from across the region. This sacred space remains central to local religious life and devotion.
The town is well connected by bus to nearby cities, with regular services linking it to the surrounding region. Walking is the best way to explore most sights, as they are located close to each other.
The town hosts a remarkable local government initiative focused on community development and social welfare. These efforts are visible in the active engagement of residents in local life.
