The Centre
Galeria Kaskada is one of the leading and most modern shopping centres in the Polish city of Szczecin and in the entire West Pomerania region. Located in a prime city centre location, the historic site was the former home of the “Kaskada“ Entertainment Center, famous for performances by a whole host of stars and its outstanding cuisine.
The new Galeria Kaskada is keeping the tradition of this location alive as a vibrant part of the city. The centre is the fashion magnet and offers modern and well established gastro concepts.
