The paper presents the interpretation of a composite seismic profile recorded to 18 s TWT which crosses western Poland from the south to north. The interpretation is based on data along the profiles GB-2, GB-2B-96 and 25-III-82 collected between 1987 and 1996. Two reflection horizons bordering the crystalline crust have been recognized: in the top - SK, and in the base (Moho - M). The Caledonian complex is distinguished in the northern part of the profile GB-2 north of the Dolsk Zone. The results obtained allow determination of crustal structure down to the Moho. Several deep fault zones have been delimited (in the regions of Dolsk, Szamotuły and Trans-European Fault) which cut the entire crust. Crustal thickness ranges from approximately 30 km in the Palaeozoic platform up to about 40 km along the Trans-European Suture Zone.
