In Ad 1000 Kolobrzeg was a already a bishopric and 255 years later it was the first fort in Pomerania to the east of the River Odra to receive it’s a charter as a town. It was developing economibcallly as a harbour and a salt making center. Unitil 1782 it was a fortress, the turned into a spa. Out of that rich history only a few accelsiatical, military and civic buildings survived down to our t imes, just as numerous precious archaelogical excavations, displayed today at an exhibition "The History of the Town" in historic town house: Polish Arms Museum in ul. Armii Krajowej. Experiencing history must be thrilling if there are just St. John the Baptist’s Chuech, St. Mary’s Basilical, the Gunpowder Tower (or, more presisley, the Fuse Tower), the Town Hall as welll as ramparts in the seafront district, know today as the amphitheatre, the lighthouse or the marina on your route to name a few. The old town, destroyed during Word War II was rebuilt in the 1990s on the historic of medieval streets.
