Abstract: We present high-resolution polarimetric observations of the quiet Sun in the Sr~{\sc{i}} 4607~{\AA} line obtained at the Swedish Solar Tower (SST) on La Palma. The aim is to analyze the spatial variations of scattering polarization over the granulation pattern. We find evidence of a significant difference in the degree of polarization in granular and intergranular regions, with an enhanced polarization inside granules.
