Virgin Tower in Szczecin, Medieval fortified tower in Szczecin, Poland
The Virgin Tower features a circular floor plan with thick walls, deep embrasures, crenellation, and a spire at its northeastern position in the Old Town.
Built around 1400 as part of the city defenses, the tower protected the Maiden Gate and remained standing while other medieval fortifications were demolished after 1720.
The structure demonstrates the transition in military architecture from medieval to early modern periods through its combination of Gothic and Renaissance elements.
Located at Panieńska 47, the tower contains vaulted chambers that visitors can access during opening hours with prior permission from the property owners.
The structure earned the name Tower of Seven Coats and represents the last remaining medieval defensive tower in Szczecin, alongside a small wall fragment.
