Kanzelhaus (Preacher’s House) at the Church of the Holy Trinity, Gdańsk

Highlight • Historical Site

The peculiarity of Gdańsk is the so-called pulpit houses (Kanzelhaus). In 1900, there were only eight residential buildings of this type in Gdańsk. Only one has survived to this day. The pulpit house at the Holy Trinity Church - also called "ryglówka", from the type of construction, or from the German Kanzelhaus, is one of the buildings that are part of the Franciscan monastery complex.

It was built in the second half of the 17th century in connection with the demand for apartments - gallery houses were characteristic and common for Gdańsk, because they were inexpensive. The apartments in them were small, with entrances to all rooms from the front - from the ground floor and the gallery.

Initially, it was inhabited by Polish language lecturers at the Academic Gymnasium, who were also preachers in the Polish church of St. Anne (currently the chapel of St. Anne is part of the Church of the Holy Trinity), later by craftsmen working for the monastery. The sources do not provide information about its fate or the extent of war damage. The building was renovated in 1990 (among the Gedanists there are opinions about a "massacre", not renovation - apparently a large part was demolished and built anew, instead of restored) and currently serves as a residential building for the Franciscan Fathers, whose monastery became the seat of the National Museum after the war. From the courtyard of the house you can enter both the church and the chapel, where there are statues of St. Francis and St. Clare.

National Museum in Gdańsk

Highlight • Historical Site

The National Museum in Gdańsk is one of the oldest museums in Poland. It was created by merging two institutions – the City Museum (1870) and the Museum of Arts and Crafts (1881). The main core of the museum's collections is the collection of Jacob Kabrun (1759–1814), consisting of several thousand paintings, drawings, and etchings by European masters from the late 15th to the early 19th century.
The National Museum in Gdańsk, whose main building – the late Gothic Franciscan monastery – houses the Department of Early Art, has five other branches, whose headquarters are located in historic buildings. The Abbot's Palace in Gdańsk-Oliwa houses the Department of Modern Art, and the Abbey Granary houses the Department of Ethnography. The Green Gate on the Long Market is a venue for temporary exhibitions. Józef Wybicki's manor house in Będomin near Kościerzyna houses the Museum of the National Anthem, and in Waplewo Wielki, in the historic palace of the Sierakowski family, the Museum of Noble Tradition was founded. The Department of Modern Art includes NOMUS – Poland's newest museum of contemporary art – as well as the Gdańsk Gallery of Photography.

Baszta Biała (White Tower)

Highlight • Historical Site

The White Tower (German: Weißer Turm) is a defensive tower (Polish: baszta) built in Gdańsk, Poland, between 1460 and 1461. As part of the city fortifications, it served to protect the New Gate of the suburb (Stare Przedmieście). After the construction of the Gdańsk Fortress, the structure was preserved and used as a powder tower.

The New Gate was the southern entrance to the suburb, which received its own city wall. When the Red Army captured the city of Gdańsk in March 1945, the roof and part of the walls were destroyed, and the interior burned out. The tower was restored in 1948. The city of Gdańsk acquired the building in 1981 as the seat for the mountaineering club "Trójmiasto". The club bore the costs of the renovation.

Under the number 418, the White Tower was entered into the National Heritage Register of the Pomeranian Voivodeship (formerly Gdańsk Voivodeship) on October 30, 1971. The tower has four floors and is 13 meters high. The walls are almost two meters thick on the ground floor. The building is shaped like a truncated cylinder, with a straight wall on the north side. During the renovation, polychrome paintings from the 15th century were discovered on the first floor.

Stone Lock

Highlight • Monument

It is a historic Stone Lock, built at the beginning of the 17th century. On the one hand, it protected Żuławy against floods, and on the other, it allowed it to flood the areas around Gdańsk, where the enemy troops were besieging the city.
