Warszewo

Warszewo (Polish: [varˈʂɛ.vɔ]; German until 1945: Warsow [ˈvaɐ̯.zoː]) is an administrative neighbourhood forming a subdivision of the North district in the city of Szczecin, Poland. It is a mixed residential area with low-rise single-family and mid-rise multifamily housing. The neighbourhood has an area of 7.3 km2 (2.8 sq mi), and in 2025, was inhabited by 12,416 people. Warszewo also includes the St. Anthony of Padua Church, a Roman Catholic Gothic Revival parish church dating to 1874. Within its boundaries, it also includes the neighbourhoods of Odolany, Podbórz, and Stoki. Warszewo was most likely founded in the 13th century as a small farming community. In the 18th century, the hamlet of Bukowo was established to its east, and in the 19th century, the hamlets of Podbórz, Stoki, and Sienno were also founded around it. At the turn of the 20th century, Warszewo developed into a suburb, and in the 1920s, the hamlet of Odolany was founded to its south. The area was incorporated into the city of Szczecin in 1939.
