Szubin, Municipal center in Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland.
Szubin is a municipal center in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian region, located between the larger cities of Bydgoszcz and Nakło nad Notecią. It serves as the administrative seat for the urban-rural gmina and its surrounding district.
The town was first mentioned in 1365 near a castle belonging to the Pałuka family. It received town rights in 1434 under Polish administration.
The coat of arms features a pelican feeding its young, a symbol rooted in the region's medieval noble heritage and still displayed throughout the town.
The town is easily accessible by road from nearby cities and serves as a hub for local services and administration. Visitors can find municipal facilities and amenities grouped in the central area.
Medieval vineyards once dotted the surrounding area, leading occupying forces during World War II to call the town Altburgund. This agricultural past reveals an unexpected chapter in the region's story.
