More information

We invite you to a 2-hour harbor cruise during the “Żagle” event aboard the vessel: Bonawentura.
This is the only ketch in Poland with a rare rigging style known as Va Marie, featuring a ribbed gaff. The vessel was built in 1948 at the Northern Shipyard in Gdańsk (then known as Shipyard No. 3). It was originally constructed as a wooden oak fishing cutter, model MIR-20A—a modified version of the popular pre-war MIR-20 cutter.
The design documentation was prepared during the occupation by a team led by engineer Wojciech Orszulok, who later became a designer of numerous ships and yachts, including the schooner Zew Morza. A total of 16 cutters of this series were built. Only one has survived to this day.

A Sailing Celebration in the Heart of Szczecin!
From August 15 to 17, we invite you to Żagle 2025 – a spectacular maritime event.

Three days of unforgettable experiences lie ahead! Wały Chrobrego and Łasztownia will be filled with tall ships, naval vessels, and smaller yachts heading toward Szczecin. From Friday through Sunday, the sailing ships will be on full display. Dozens of vessels will arrive, many of which will open their decks to visitors and also offer cruises on the Oder River.

While the tall ships are the highlight of the event, they’re not the only attraction. On both sides of the river, two music stages will host top performers and beloved shanty bands. The main stage will be located at the square near Komandorska Street, and the shanty stage will be on Łasztownia. Concerts will take place over all three days and will be completely free of charge.

Musical excitement will also be provided by the 8th Brass Band Festival for the Szczecin Mayor’s Cup. Brass bands from across Poland and abroad will showcase their talents through parades, drill shows, and concerts.
