Gdansk
Gdansk, the city by the sea. The harbour city is located on the Baltic Sea and is one of the most populous cities in Poland. It is full of history and is waiting to be discovered by you. The old trading city of the Hanseatic League was once one of the largest and richest cities in Europe. A place where the Second World War began and the social movement that overthrew communism in Eastern Europe originated. The streets of the old town will make you feel like you're in Amsterdam, and not without reason. And you'll see some fascinating museums, including one housed in a huge post-industrial shipyard. Separately, we'll take you directly to the spa atmosphere of Sopot and the modernist city of Gdynia by high-speed train.
Highlights
-
Even today, the amber shops in Gdansk are lined up one after the other. No wonder that an amber route ran from the Baltic to the Adriatic as early as the Roman Empire. It was used to transport amber to southern Europe and vice versa for the transport of gold and silver to the north.
-
This street is probably the most beautiful mile in the trading town. It stands out with its town houses and the Neptune Fountain with the god of the sea in front of the Artus Court.
-
The largest brick church in the world and a truly imposing building that you should definitely visit. The 413 steps lead directly to the tower, from where you have a great view of the city.
