What it's like to live in Stare Miasto
Stare Miasto wraps the rebuilt old town and the Oder waterfront, anchored by the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle and the colourful merchant houses below it. It is the city's showcase quarter — cobbled lanes and riverside promenades on one side, sleek new apartment blocks along the boulevards on the other. The mix means two very different rental experiences: characterful flats in restored historic buildings, and modern units with lifts, parking and river views. It is lively with tourists and weekend crowds in the warmer months, and the most walkable, photogenic part of the city year-round.
