    This historic place you cannot miss as it stands in the middle of the main Dluga street, right behind the Neptune fountain.
    Entry fee is around 5 Euros, little bit overpriced for what it offers, but still interesting.
    The house used to be the meeting place of aristocracy and rich merchants who formed brotherhoods here depending on their origin and business. Each of the brotherhood had its space beneath the Hall arcades, which they decorated with paintings, sculptures and other pieces of art (the tallest 11m ceramic tiles stove being the most interesting one).
    Apart from that, it served as a reception hall for celebrations and feasts, as well a courthouse and the seat of Corn Exchange. You need around half an hour to visit.

    Stick with it - the first few rooms are big and grand with very minimal information. It gets better as you go through the house. Lots of information boards at the end which I think would have been better placed in the room that had been reconstructed. It was informative though.
    Free entrance on Monday

    This is a stunning building on the main street in the center of the old town. A beautiful fountain lies in front, so the ensemble is lovely and photogenic. Lovely statues up on the top, decorating.

    There isn’t much to do or see here but like so many buildings and structures in the city, it’s just beautiful. It is flashy and the gilded 19th century monument is worth a look.

    Museum was closed until April but you are able to walk through and see the prison cell
    Doors and shackles hanging which make for a good photo.

    Funny bit is - we almost missed main exposition... After you pay for tickets you are directed to temporary exhibit (absolutely a must, grab it if you can - it's about identity of post-war Gdańsk inhabitants). And it looks like that's it. There's no arrow indicating that you should go to courtyard and even if you wander there as we did you need to spot the door that leads to main exhibit (also interesting). So... very weird.

    On the opposite side of the road to the mill and is built over the waterway. Unfortunately there is no information on or near it to explain its history or function, but its old. Walked past it a few times and wondered.

    The Gothic St Mary’s Gate is a representative example of the Gdańsk town gate. The coats of arms that have been preserved on the façade are valuable iconographic examples of the Pomeranian heraldry.

    One of the many Gdansk's gate, this one looks sturdy and leads to the city centre or to thw riverside (depending which way ate you coming from). Quite different from the more local gates, definitely worth seeing!

    Brama Stagiewna are the remaining parts of the defensive walls and gate remaining from the fortifications built between 1517 _ 1519.
    Known as the mammon stables ,the towers have been destroyed twice ,in the siege of 1813 and in the ferocious Battle of Gdansk in 1945.
    Rebuilt post war ,now home to a co operative of Polish artists.
    We were heading to some of the great bars near this tower and the tower looked amazing especially at night and made for some great photographic opportunities.
    Easy to find on the Milk Bank of Granary Island,it's found on Stagiewna.
    Well worth checking out.

    The building was erected in the style of Gdansk Neo-Renaissance. It was built in 1898–1901. The building was erected on a special foundation, the use of which allowed it to be erected in the place of the filled moat. The interior of the town hall was richly decorated. The building was entered into the register of monuments on April 17, 1972. Currently it is the seat of the Gdańsk City Council, and also has a representative function, weddings are given here.

    Dotted around the old town. This one has a photography business in it so is not open to the public. It is located next to the farmer's market.

    I bought my partner here for her 40th and couldn't have asked for a better stay. The house is beautiful, clean and welcoming. The staff were fantastic and we're so helpful.
    Highly recommend this place..

    Another church building which I just happened to pass by on my wanderings. Another lovely building in the touristy area, though not worth a special trip.

    Nice gate near Dluga Street in Gdańsk. The gateway is really when Dluga street begins and has loads of attractions including Neptunes Fountain
