Unadorned hall church with a bell tower located over the street

Sometimes even the most faithful bike needs a little break. And right here, south of the old Zechin train station, between Buschdorfer Straße and Hauptgraben, it suddenly appears by the side of the road: the bicycle repair and charging station, bright yellow and orange like a technical work of art, ready to continue your journey. It smells of asphalt, summer, tool oil, and fresh country air. Batteries are being recharged, screws are being tightened, valves are being adjusted. Anyone who wants to can treat themselves to a short break here, leaning almost reverently against the solid technology. Their gaze wanders over fields, their thoughts already rolling ahead. Not a museum, not an insider tip, simply a place that delivers on its promise: help for self-help – and the feeling that even as a cyclist in Brandenburg, they haven't been forgotten.

one of the squares in the central part of Słubice, which was known as Wola Targ right after the war. It is also known as Nowy Rynek in the minds of the residents. In the eastern part of the square there is a square with benches and walking paths. The square is directly adjacent to Józefa Piłsudskiego Street (from the north) and Jana Pawła II Square (from the southwest). From the north-east corner of the square branch off: ul. Konstytucji 3 Maja (to the north) and ul. Bolesława Krzywoustego (to the east). From the south-east corner of the square branch off: ul. Żwirki i Wigury (to the south) and ul. Gabriela Narutowicza (to the east).

The Gorgast village church, consecrated in 1959, is one of the newly constructed religious buildings in the early days of the GDR. The furnishings are predominantly modern and date from the time the church was built. The building replaced a previous structure from 1888, which was blown up by German troops at the end of World War II. The ruins were demolished in 1956. In the following years, the parish began rebuilding the church using the old bricks. The church was consecrated on Thanksgiving Day on October 5, 1959. Across the street, a bell tower made of reddish brick with pointed, Gothic-style bell arcades, in which two bells hang, was newly built. A cross stands above the pyramidal roof.
