Pilchowo is a part of the city of Szczecin, Poland[1] situated on the left bank of Oder river, north-west of the Szczecin Old Town and Downtown.
The area became part of the emerging Polish state under its first ruler Mieszko I around 967,[2][3] and following Poland's fragmentation it formed part of the Duchy of Pomeraniam which became part of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. The area became German-speaking as the result of Ostsiedlung and was known as Polchow. During the Thirty Years' War, the settlement fell under control of the Swedish Empire by stayed part of Germany. Later on, within Germany, it passed to Prussia.
