May 30, 2026, Sopot Pier

The Sopot Pier is the resort's most famous landmark – an elegant wooden pier stretching 511 metres into the Bay of Gdańsk, making it the longest wooden pier in Europe. Repeatedly extended since the 19th century, it now invites you for a long walk over the sea, where the wind, waves, and coastal panorama have a particularly intense effect. During high season, access is subject to a fee, but the pier is at its most beautiful early in the morning or outside the summer months, when it is almost deserted. An atmospheric highlight of any tour along the Baltic coast.

The Westerplatte Monument rises visibly above the harbor canal – a 23-meter-high granite monument commemorating the Polish defenders who held out here for seven days in September 1939. The complex is located on an artificial hill on the edge of the wooded peninsula and is accessible via a well-trodden path that passes ruins and memorial plaques. The site combines tranquil nature with a somber history and offers an impressive view of the Bay of Danzig – a moving stop on any route through the region.

The street begins at St. Mary's Church and leads eastward to the Motlawa River, the medieval Mariacka Gate, and the adjacent House of the Natural History Society. Away from the through traffic of Long Street, the alleys around St. Mary's Church, and especially in Mariacka Street, often offered a quiet atmosphere reminiscent of the "tranquility of old Gdańsk days." With its narrow, richly decorated town houses and the "beischläge" (raised terraces located in front of the actual front door, often reached via ornate staircases), it is an example of Gdańsk's former street architecture. In 1945, Mariacka Street was completely destroyed and rebuilt in the 1950s and 1960s. One architectural critic has stated that today's Mariacka Street "contains the design quintessence of the entire city." Mariacka Street has served as the backdrop for several film productions. For example, in Buddenbrocks, where she portrayed "the beautiful world of Lübeck's patricians." "Yet, one has never seen additions of such grandeur and decorative opulence on the Trave." Several well-known personalities lived or worked in Frauengasse at various times: Frauengasse No. 2 During the Weimar Republic, the Protestant pastor and writer Artur Brausewetter (1864–1946) lived here. He was a deacon from 1893 and archdeacon from 1908 at St. Mary's Church in Gdansk, and wrote around 50 novels. House No. 2 in Frauengasse, a 17th-century building, served as the rectory of St. Mary's Church and, from the church's perspective, was the second house on the right side of the street. Frauengasse No. 3 From around 1934, the Karl Formell printing and publishing house was located here, run by Karl Formell, a trade union official and senator in Gdansk (Central City). The publishing house primarily published Catholic publications. Frauengasse No. 11 Between 1807 and 1814, this was the residence of Dagobert von Vegesack, a Prussian major who also served as resident and police chief in Danzig. Frauengasse No. 52 From 1909, the Protestant pastor Hermann Daniel lived here. Daniel, who was a deacon at St. Mary's Church in Danzig at the same time as Archdeacon Artur Brausewetter, who lived at Frauengasse No. 2. Source: Wikipedia
