Gdańsk is a historic port city located on Poland's Baltic coast, serving as the capital of the Pomeranian Voivodeship. With a history spanning over a thousand years, the city has been a significant maritime trading center and a melting pot of cultures. The city's rich cultural heritage is reflected in its distinctive architecture, particularly in the Main Town, where reconstructed merchant houses showcase the prosperity of its Hanseatic League period.
Gdańsk played a pivotal role in modern European history as the birthplace of the Solidarity movement in 1980, which contributed to the fall of communism in Eastern Europe. The city hosts numerous cultural institutions, including museums that document its maritime history, artistic heritage, and role in World War II, during which the first shots of the conflict were fired at nearby Westerplatte.
Today, Gdańsk continues to be an important cultural center, combining its historical significance with contemporary arts and cultural initiatives.
