Kolobrzeg Things to Do

When You are in Kołobrzeg, You have plenty to see.
1. First is a faymous lighthouse located in the postage.
2. Then You can go and see a monument called "Monument to nuptials" (in polish "Pomnik zaślubin"). This monument was put, when the Polish regained Kołobrzeg after World War II. After World War II a soldier threw a ring in to the see, and he said ("I am vowing to you...)" :] and now we are all married with Baltic sea and we'll never leave it :]
3. Next we have a long Kolobrzeg pier. In the summer time, for the enter You must pay.

This river which flows through the town out to Baltic Sea
the Parseta river on the south coast of the Baltic Sea
(in the middle of the section divided by the Oder and Vistula rivers).

Parseta is a river in north-western Poland,
a tributary of the Baltic Sea, with a length of 132 kilometres
and the basin area of 3,151 km?.

Just stroll along by the port along the end of the port railway
and see people fishing in the Parseta river which runs out to sea and the fishing
fleet. Maybe even a naval ship like a minesweeper.

I traveled from St.Petersburg with my Russian girlfriend who I had
know since 1989 as she needed to wait for her Swedish visa,
and Poland was still visa free then for Russians. We travelled from
Gdansk then to Sopot, Gydinia, Koszalin, Kolobrzeg, Sczetin

We spent a wonderful day in Kolobrzeg and we were staying in
Koselin in the youth hostel there.
