Zamek Odrzański, Medieval castle in Szczecin, Poland.

The castle stands on elevated ground near the Oder River, featuring preserved structures, royal apartments, and multiple exhibition galleries within its walls.

Founded in 1360 by Duke Barnim III as a Carthusian monastery, the castle transformed into a ducal residence after a fire at the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle in 1551.

The castle exhibitions include the Gallery of Porcelain and Lankcoroński Gallery, displaying European paintings by masters such as Rembrandt.

Visitors can explore the permanent exhibitions, royal chambers, and participate in guided tours that present the castle's architectural and historical elements.

In 1619, the castle dungeons held Sidonia von Borch, a noblewoman accused of witchcraft, before her trial and execution.
