Sight-seeing the Philharmonic in English | Bilingual Fridays

Double Anniversary! This year marks the 140th anniversary of the opening of the Konzerthaus and the 10th anniversary of the inauguration of the Philharmonic in its new headquarters. On this occasion, we invite you to hear a magical story about a place that successfully continues the musical traditions of pre-war Szczecin. We will enrich the tour of the ultra-modern Philharmonic building with a presentation of the Dominican Monastery in Prenzlau, where atmospheric music resonates within perfectly preserved medieval walls.

Get to know the genius loci of the building on Małopolska Street.

The Mieczysław Karłowicz Philharmonic is a place full of excellent music and a beautiful building acclaimed in many architectural competitions. We invite you to visit our headquarters, which is conducted in Polish, English, and German.

Guided tours of the Philharmonic take place on Fridays after the general rehearsal. At 14:00, you can tour the Philharmonic in English or German, and at 15:00 in Polish. Each tour lasts approximately 45 minutes. The tour starts in the Philharmonic foyer and leads through the chamber hall, where a film is screened, through Level 4 Gallery, the symphony hall, the Gallery near the Orthodox Church, and finally to the souvenir and publishing shop.

Tickets for the tour cost 10 PLN per person and can be purchased through our website or directly before the tour at the ticket office.

Visit the Dominican Monastery in Prenzlau

The times of the Dominican monks in Prenzlau have long passed. Their place within the monastery walls has been filled with history, art, and culture. Painstakingly restored at the end of the 1990s, today's sacred building stands as one of northeastern Germany's best-preserved medieval monastery complexes. The cloisters, refectory, former dining hall for the monks' guests, sacristy, and women's chapel catch the eye and invite one to unleash their imagination and embark on a journey through history.

Under its roof, the facility combines four important regional cultural institutions: the Historical and Cultural Museum with its galleries, the historical city archive, the municipal library, and the "Kulturarche" events centre.
