キュストリーナーヴォーランドのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

One of the three preserved bastions of the Kostrzyn Fortress and the only one open to the public. Since 2014, the Filip Bastion has housed a permanent museum exhibition. It presents selected aspects of the history of the town and garrison from the fortress' inception to the military struggles that have raged in the surrounding area over the centuries. The battles for the town in February and March 1945, as well as the history of the bastion itself, are presented in detail. The process of gradual expansion and modernization of the fortress is presented concisely and clearly. Considerable attention is paid to the cataclysm of the Seven Years' War and the destruction of the town on the eve of the Battle of Sarbinowo on August 25, 1758. A separate section is also devoted to the history of Kostrzyn Castle, depicted as the ancestral seat of the Hohenzollern family.

Great view of the Oder, new things are the traffic lights and the border control!

The name, like the street name, comes from the Slavic fishing settlement of Kietz, which was located south of the town. In the 16th century, the gate was merely a small gateway. Through it, one entered the town from the settlement over a narrow bridge over the Warta River. Above this Kietz Gate was the office of the Wall Master in the Gatekeeper's House.
