Description

Gdańsk, Gdanzc, Dantzk, Dantzig, Danzig... is a beautiful, independent city, shaped by wealthy traders coming from many corners of Europe, called 'Danzigers' ('residents of Gdańsk'). Over time, it became the largest port on the Baltic Sea, supplying the city with grain, wood and the 'gold of the Baltic Sea' - amber. Daniel Fahrenheit, Arthur Schopenhauer and Günter Grass were born in this city. Napoleon, when creating the first Free City of Danzig, said: 'Gdansk is the key to everything.' Some time later, Hitler created there one of the largest Nazi cities in Europe with the headquarters of the NSDAP. One of the first armed clashes of World War II took place here, while defending the Polish Post Office building in the Free City of Gdańsk. It was also in the city of Gdańsk that the shipyard workers' strike led by Lech Wałęsa initiated the end of communism in this part of Europe.
