Fly to Szczecin from Liverpool

Book your Liverpool to Szczecin flights with Ryanair

Situated near the Baltic Sea, and home to Poland’s largest seaport, Szczecin is a must-see destination that should feature on every traveller’s bucket list. At Liverpool John Lennon Airport, we offer direct flights to the city of Szczecin with airline carrier Ryanair.

Why you should go to Szczecin

Founded in the 8th century, Szczecin is steeped in history. It is also fabulously picturesque and is often compared to Paris due to its green spaces filled with parks and broad, leafy avenues. In fact, the city was redesigned in 1889 by Georges-Eugène Haussmann, who was responsible for the redesign of the French capital.

Those visiting Szczecin usually descend upon the Castle of the Pomeranian Dukes - a 14th century castle that underwent extensive restoration following World War II. Inside you’ll find the Castle Museum, which features a stunning exhibition of six sarcophagi of the Pomeranian dukes. The Historical Museum is also a must-see. This 15th century gothic town hall, which miraculously survived bombing during World War II, gives visitors a slice of true Szczecin culture.

The Cathedral Basilica of Saint James is another must for your itinerary. This 12th century church was reconstructed in 1972 and offers amazing views of the Oder River and the surrounding area from its tower.

After a day of sightseeing, don’t forget to check out the city’s many restaurants, serving everything from traditional Polish cuisine to Indian food. You’ll also find an array of bustling bars, cafés and pubs, including the popular Stara Komenda microbrewery.

When you should go to Szczecin

If you’re keen to time your trip to Szczecin when the weather is at its best, we recommend booking your flights between May and September. The warmest time of year is during the summer, when you can expect highs of 25˚C. So, if you want to make the most of the sunshine, planning your trip in June, July and August is your best bet. However, with so much to see and do in the city, a trip to Szczecin at any time of the year is well worth the journey.

Where to stay in Szczecin

The city is made up of several neighbourhoods. For first-timers who want to be in the thick of it all, the Old Town and city centre areas are your best options. These neighbourhoods are within close proximity of the city’s main attractions, including the iconic Wały Chrobrego promenade.

If you’re looking for somewhere quiet, Pogodno and Śródmieście-Północ might be more suitable. Situated on the outskirts of the city centre, here you can enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere. You’ll find many parks, cafes and restaurants too.
