Geography
A provincial capital of Central
Pomerania (a region in the north
Poland), Slupsk is picturesquely
situated on both banks of the river
Slupia. It has been the capital of Slupsk
County in the Pomeranian Voivodship
since 1999, and earlier was the capital
of the voivodship.
Slupsk covers an area of 43 km2 and
has a population of 92,000. Its humid
climate and changeable weather are
due its proximity to the sea (the
seaport and seaside resort in Ustka is
only 18 km away). The average
temperature in January is 2 degrees
Celsius, while in July it rises to 16
degrees Celsius.

History
Slupsk started out in the 11th century
when Slavonic merchants and craftsmen
established a fortified settlement, with
ships sailing up the Slupia river
harbouring there. In the 12th and 13th
century the city, Castellania Slupensis,
belonged to Slawno Duchy and around
1230 was united with Pomerania and its
capital of Gdansk.

History
Since 1308 the land of Slupsk was
administered by the Brandenburg
margraves, and two years later the town
was granted city laws and privileges.
then in a more recent time In 1944 a
section of the concentration camp of
Stutthof was built in the city. Following
World War II, Slupsk, as with the whole of
Pomerania, was placed within Polish
borders

Touristic
As Slupsk is favourably located close to
the seaside and major transit roads,
most travellers pass through the city in
the summer months on their way to the
Baltic resorts of Leba, Ustka, Darlowo,
Jaroslawiec and Rowy

Touristic
Slupsk also offers welcome quiet places - green
spots in the centre and along the banks of the
river, perfect for strolling and relaxing. In the
old part of Slupsk, do not miss the scenic
Nowobramska Street that was recently
modernised to improve its historical and
aesthetic values. This historic city has a welldeveloped tourist infrastructure, which
includes hotels, hostels, restaurants, cafes and
bars at prices to suit every budget.
