History

Rondo Uniwersyteckie is a prominent landmark in the city of Szczecin, Poland. It is a roundabout located at the intersection of major streets, including ul. Ku Słońcu, ul. Arkońska, and al. Wojska Polskiego. The history of Rondo Uniwersyteckie is closely tied to the development and growth of Szczecin as a city.

The origins of the roundabout can be traced back to the late 19th century when urban development began to shape the city's landscape. However, the roundabout itself was officially established in the early 20th century during the period when Szczecin was part of Germany and known as Stettin. At that time, it was called Kaiser Wilhelm Platz, named after the German Emperor Wilhelm II.

Following World War II and the subsequent shift of boundaries, Szczecin became part of Poland. The roundabout was renamed several times during this period, reflecting the city's changing political landscape. One of the notable names it acquired was Plac Grunwaldzki, commemorating the Battle of Grunwald in 1410, a significant event in Polish history.
