A section of Jana Pawła II Avenue from Lotników Square to Grunwaldzki Square.
Fountain Avenue is an approximately 250-meter-long pedestrian street, an ideal stop for a meal at the numerous restaurants, pubs, and cafes located along it.
Some of the buildings on the avenue date back to the turn of the 20th century, and some of the old buildings destroyed during the war were rebuilt as the City Center Residential District.
On the side of Grunwaldzki Square stands the Sailor's Monument, made of copper sheet in 1980 and designed by Ryszard Chachulski.
One of Szczecin's three forts, Fort Wilhelm, stood on the site of the current Fountain Avenue since the 18th century. It was a fort extending beyond the northwest corner of the modern fortifications. After the fortifications were demolished, the creation of wide passageways began at the end of the 19th century, which were later expanded with tenement houses at the turn of the 20th century.
From today's Polish Soldier Square towards Kasprowicz Park, a walking route was created in the early 20th century, a favorite among residents to this day.
During Allied air raids, the dense development in the area of today's Lotników Square was almost completely demolished, and during the post-war reconstruction in the 1950s, the Śródmiejska Dzielnica Mieszkaniowa (ŚDM) was created here.
In the mid-1970s, a series of fountains was built, which was subsequently rebuilt several times.
