  We present large-scale CCD images of a dozen low surface brightness objects
in the vicinity of giant Sc galaxy NGC 6946, which have been found recently on
POSS-II copies. Six of them: UGC 11583, kk251, kk252, kkr55, kkr56, and kkr59
are dwarf irregular galaxies resolved into stars. We determined their distances
from the luminosity of the brightest blue stars. The mean estimated distance to
the NGC 6946 group is 5.9 +- 0.4 Mpc. Together with Cepheus 1, discovered
before, the group consist of 8 late type galaxies. Almost all of them are
detected or marginally detected in the HI line. The group is characterized by a
linear projected diameter of 420 kpc, a radial velocity dispersion of 95 km/s,
and a virial mass-to-luminosity ratio about 56 M_sun/L_sun.
