Die Ansteuerung von Wollin ist Ortsunkundigen nur am Tag zu empfehlen. Sie erfolgt aus dem Stettiner Haff kommend ab Tonne ME-W mit 082° in Richtung Tonne W4 und mit gleichem Kurs durch das betonnte Fahrwasser in die Paulsdorfer Bucht. Der beidseitig betonnte Fahrwasserabschnitt neigt stark zur Versandung. Ab Tonne W3 ist eine Wassertiefe um 3m vorhanden. Die beiden festen Brücken nördlich der Drehbrücke haben eine Durchfahrtshöhe von 12,2m.
Die Passage über die Dievenow in Richtung Ostsee ist deshalb nur für Schiffe mit weniger als 12m Masthöhe möglich. Das Fahrwasser ist von der Ostsee her ab Dievenow betonnt. Vom Stettiner Haff kommend, hält man die roten Tonnen an Steuerbord, Wassertiefen um 2m.

Historians assume that here stood the legendary city of Vineta, which according to legend sank. It is certain that there was a very rich, large pagan trading town on the island of Wollin. This has already been proven by scientific excavations around 1930, when rich jewellery and coins were discovered, as well as cult sites. Eight-metre wide ramparts surrounded the town, whose road network was laid out in such a way that the roads running from west to east led directly to the harbour, where merchant ships held up to 30 tons of cargo.
No way did Vineta lie off the coast of Usedom or off Arkona, as is still claimed. Later, it suited the Christian missionaries well to tell of a city which, through extravagance, lust and godlessness, did not escape its just punishment and therefore, like Atlantis, sank into the sea. Only once every 100 years, according to the legend, is the city allowed to rise in all its glory for one hour on Easter Eve and can then be redeemed by the purchase of a commodity. In fact, the findings point to a distinctly rich Slavic centre in the period from the 8th to the 11th century. Vineta is said to have been regarded as a wonder city, where merchants filled their warehouses with goods of all kinds. There was talk of magnificent helmets, splendidly decorated weapons, valuable silk fabrics, silver and gold cups on which diamonds flashed. Everything the heart desired was said to have been available: Cattle, sheep, horses, hides, wool, honey, flax, frothy beer and sweet mead.
The economic potential of the city was overwhelming for the turn of the millennium. Bronze and iron working and the production of leaded glass indicate an advanced culture of craftsmanship. Horn production had almost industrial proportions. Almost 40,000(!) raw horn products were found, from which handles, settings, jewellery boxes, hairpins and combs were to be made, which were exported in large numbers.Likewise, amber was processed in large quantities into small works of art and jewellery. Some 100 kilograms of the Gold of the North have so far been found in the remains of the once mighty trading city.
In legend, the wealth is embellished. According to it, the port city was surrounded by a wall with golden gates, the houses were made of marble, and the finest silverware stood on the tables. This wealth called in the Vikings under Harald Blauzahn, who raided the Wendish city several times in the 10th century and finally destroyed it. But the city was refounded.
On the ruins of Vineta were built the Vikings' Jomsburg and the great trading city of Jumneta, which was soon named Julin. Velunzani, Weltaba and Voulini are other names that have survived. The name Jom first appeared around 1050, meaning sand island.
A lively merchant trade developed, for the place lay on the so-called Amber Road between Scandinavia and Byzantium. The Oder was considered the richest river in the Slavic lands. Jumneta was a melting pot for people of various nations, who could live and trade in the Slavic town unmolested if they did not publicly display their faith. In a surviving description, Adam of Bremen calls the city the largest in Europe.
A travelogue by the Arab merchant Ibrahim Ibn Jacob states that the city had twelve city gates and a large harbor. Whole and halved tree trunks would form the building material of the jetties. The pagan Woolins probably worshipped the three-headed Triglaff. The town's star sank after the Norwegian princes devastated the Jomsburg Viking fleet.
The Pomeranian dukes imposed Christianity partly by force and pushed back Wollin (then Jullin) in favour of their residence Szczecin. Again the Danes, at war with Pomerania, conquered the city in 1170. King Waldemar destroyed it to the ground.
On the desolate site, Wollin arose, a boatman's, fisherman's, and farmer's town, which received the town charter of Lübeck in 1277, but could never again match the old glory days of its predecessors. Ship smiths, ropemakers and coopers were among the craftsmen of the town in the 18th and 19th centuries, in whose harbour large quantities of grain were handled even before the Second World War. In 1945, the town was almost completely destroyed.
Today, the town has not yet recovered from the "Battle for Wollin" and boasts only a few sights. First of all, there is the church, which was badly damaged in 1945. Only the walls of the nave remained. For a long time, church services were held here in the open air. In the meantime it has been completely restored and is once again a striking landmark. The carvings made of whole tree trunks, which are very widespread in this area of Poland, are particularly striking, but hardly anywhere are they as concentrated as in Wollin. The life of the Vikings and Slavs can be experienced vividly in the Viking village Jomsburg on the offshore island. Since 1993, an annual Viking festival has been held here, to which participants from all over the Baltic Sea region travel to demonstrate, among other things, historical crafts. The museum of local history at the harbour and a historical square, which reminds of the crusaders' march to the Slavic land, conclude the small list of sights.
