History
Before 1945 when Szczecin (Stettin) was a part of Germany, the German name of this suburb was Stettin-Bredow,[2] or just Bredow.[3] Historically, when part of Germany, the Vulcan iron-works and shipbuilding yards were located here.[3] The liners “Deutschland” (1900), the “Kaiserin Augusta Victoria” (1906), and the “George Washington” (1908), then the largest vessel — 722 feet (220 m) long, 27,000 tons — in the German mercantile marine, were built.[3] There were also sugar, cement and other factories.[3]
