December 1, 2025,Kietzer Tor – Ruinen der Altstadt von Kostrzyn - Runde von Küstrin-Kietz

The journey begins with a bus and train ride... The minor, stressful mishap will go unmentioned, as my schedule for reaching the starting point, Küstrin-Kiez, still worked out, even though the train departed 5 minutes late. The destination is a view of the Oder/Warta Delta, passing a disused barracks complex to reach the ruins of the König and Filip bastions, …

November 2, 2025,RainbowHikers – Von Küstrin-Kietz durch die ehemalige Festung und zum Polenmarkt

After yesterday's hike, a leisurely stroll with the Rainbowhikers was just what I needed. Plus, I'd actually never made it to the fortress before 🫣

As expected, it was a fun outing in pleasant company and with some new insights. @dkozian raved about the museum so much that I definitely want to visit it again in May 2026 (it's closed …

Behind the border crossing there are still ruins of the fortress from the 16th century. The old town was completely destroyed in 1945 and not rebuilt.
We looked at this facility today and then walked over the Warta into the city center.

May 26, 2024,Küstrin/ Kostrzyn nad Odrą: Oderinseln, Ruinen der Altstadt, Festung, Neustadt; ab Bf Küstrin-Kietz

A little island hopping on the only road that still connects the original parts of Küstrin.
It is worth visiting the modern museum in the Bastion Filip before visiting the ruins of the old town. Among other things, a film is shown in which historical recordings and film sequences have been edited together with a camera movement through the current …

March 6, 2026,Erst Tanktourismus 🇮🇩👍➡️ Stadtrundgang durch Alt & Neu..🤩🥾

After filling up cheaply (1L = €1.53), I parked my car on the German side before embarking on a walking tour through the historic, yet vanished, old town of Küstrin, including its fortress. I strolled through the Berlin Gate and saw only ruins, remnants of walls, and steps leading to house entrances in the parks...it's quite a disconcerting feeling!
