More than a thousand years of history. A mix of the culture - Polish, German, but also Jewish, Scottish and Dutch. Years of glory and times of decline. Long periods of peace, but also many horrific wars. Hundreds of years of rivalry between Poland and Germany. That is basically Gdansk's history in a nutshell.

Gdańsk (Danzig in German) is a port city on the Baltic coast of Poland. At the center of its Main Town, reconstructed after WWII, are the colorful facades of Long Market, now home to shops and restaurants. Nearby is Neptune Fountain, a 17th-century symbol of the city topped by a bronze statue of the sea god. Gdańsk is also a center for the world’s amber trade; boutiques throughout the city sell the ossified resin.
