Welcome to Gdańsk
Gdańsk is a port city by the Baltic Sea, at the crossroads of important commercial and communication
routes. It is the capital of the region of Pomerania, a
culture centre and the leader in science and business in the region. Gdańsk is one of Poland’s oldest cities, and over its thousand years of existence
the city has witnessed events which have changed
the course of world history. Here, on September 1,
1939, World War II began on Westerplatte peninsula, changing the whole world; Gdańsk was also the
place that initiated the fall of communism in Central
Europe. Contemporary Gdańsk is a half-amillion, dynamically developing metropolis with picturesque
cycling and walking paths, kilometres of beaches,
and many ways to have fun. In 2012, the city hosted
four matches during the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship tournament. Most of Gdańsk’s
tourist attractions are located near the heart of its
Main Town District, around Długa Street and the
River Motława. You can also visit the nearby shipyard with its post-industrial and Solidarity-related
monuments. Gdańsk’s tourist season is at its height
in June, July, and August. Today, Gdańsk is one of PGE ARENA Gdańsk

economic role. The medieval Crane, which is the oldest harbour crane in Europe, is a reminder of that time.
Now it is a promenade with numerous restaurants
where you can eat and drink with a view of the marina
and the ships sailing on the River Motława.
The Crane
The Royal Route
The name given to Długa Street and its extension: Długi Targ (Long Market). From the year 1457, the ceremonial entries of Polish monarchs took place here. Both
streets are among the most beautiful in Gdańsk. Here
the wealthiest townspeople lived. Długi Targ has what
are among the city’s most important structures – Artus
Court, the Main Town Hall and the Fountain of Neptune, one of the icons of Gdańsk.
Long Riverfront
The Long Riverfront (Długie Pobrzeże) stretches along
the River Motława. In the past it played an important

The biggest Medieval harbour crane in Europe. The
oldest documented mention of the Żuraw as a wooden harbour crane comes from 1367. It was able to lift
almost of 5 tons of goods and help put up ship masts.
It was used to unload ships and also served as a tower
and a city gate. Today, the Crane is a Gdańsk icon and
home to a branch of the Maritime Museum. The Crane
is open to visitors during the summer months. You can
come and see this surprising piece of medieval construction and various exhibits detailing the interesting
history of the entire port of Gdańsk.
St. Mary’s Church
The largest brick church in the world. Its construction,
which began in 1343, took over 150 years. After recon-
struction from damage sustained during World War II,
St Mary’s again captivates visitors with its size. You can
see a breathtaking panorama of Gdańsk from its tower.
Welcome to Gdańsk city
Mariacka Street
One of the most stylish streets in Gdańsk. It connects
St. Mary’s Church with the Long Riverfront. It charms
visitors with its beauty, the spirit of the historic city and
its houses with richly decorated entrances. Here you
can buy beautiful amber products.
Gdańsk’s city gates
The most famous of them are those which stand along
the Royal Route. First, it is worth visiting the sixteenth
century Upland Gate, which was part of the city’s fortifications. The Golden Gate, a masterpiece of Gdańsk
art from its golden age, opens the entrance to Długa
Street and Długi Targ (the Long Market). The Royal
Route closes with the Green Gate, which was the residence of kings coming to Gdańsk.
The Amber Museum
Museum is situated in the Fore-gate Complex of Długa
Street. Here you can see unique amber artefacts, but
also amber inclusions: organisms embedded in resin
millions of years ago. The most recent specimen in
the Amber Museum’s natural history collection is the
second world known inclusion of a Solifugae arachnid.
Even more impressive is the lizard inclusion which the
museum also has in its collection.
Monument to the Fallen Shipyard
Workers
The Monument stands on the square near the former
Lenin Shipyard. It was made in 1980 by the shipyard
workers. This took place a few months after the famous
strike of 1980 and the creation of the Solidarity trade
union. The monument commemorates the workers
who were shot during the strikes and demonstrations
in December 1970.
Former shipyard area
The former shipyard area once belonged to the
Gdańsk Shipyard, now many new projects are created

Welcome to Gdańsk city
here, including artistic projects. It will become the new
Gdańsk centre - The Young City, where modernity joins
together with history to fight for freedom. Currently on
its terrain the European Solidarity Centre is being built.
Roads to Freedom Exhibition
The Roads to Freedom is a unique exhibition which tells
the difficult history of Poland before 1989 and the fates
of people who fought for liberty. It shows a fascinating
fragment of Gdańsk and Polish history. The multi-media
exhibition is located near the Monument to the Fallen
Shipyard Workers at 21 Wały Piastowskie Street.
Hevelianum Centre
The Hevelianum is a unique scientific centre located
in the former Napoleonic and Prussian fortifications
in the vicinity of the Main Railway Station. This is the
best place for taking photos of the Gdańsk cityscape
and for a close encounter with modern science and
technology.
Brzeźno Pier
Oliwa
One of Gdańsk’s oldest districts. Among its attractions is Oliwa Park, built in the eighteenth century in
the gardens which used to belong to the abbey here
and where you can see plant specimens brought from
almost all over the world. Next to the park rises the Oliwa Cathedral - the longest church in Poland and one
of the longest churches in the world. The main nave
is 107 m in length (97.6 m inside). The facade and its
spires rise to a height of 46 m. Inside you can admire
the famous Oliwa Organ from the 18th century.
Wisłoujście Fortress
For centuries Wisłoujście Fortress has guarded
Gdańsk against attacks from the sea. Its beginnings
go back to the 13th century. It successfully defended the city against the invasion fleet of King Stephen
Bathory in the year 1577. The fortress has replicas of
forty cannons that were used in the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries and is a stage for historical
re-enactments.
Nowy Port Lighthouse
One of the Baltic Sea’s most beautiful lighthouses
measures 27 meters in height and was put into service
in the year 1894. Located at the top is a very unusual
instrument – a time ball. The rise and drop each afternoon allowed ship captains to precisely adjust their
chronometers. In 2008 the famous 19th century time
ball was restored and today shows the time at 12:00,
14:00, 16:00 and 18:00 with an accuracy of 1 second per
200,000 years!
“The Last Judgment”
One of Gdańsk’s favourite places to go for a walk. Beautiful sandy beaches stretch throughout Brzeźno and
when tourists become tired of the sun they can rest
in the shade of trees in nearby Reagan Park which is
separated from the beach by dunes and a cycling path
which leads to Sopot.

The famous painting by Hans Memling is the most
valuable exhibit at the National Museum in Gdańsk.
The triptych was created between 1467 and 1471. It is
impressive with its dimensions as well as its technical
perfection, the beauty of the vision and the rich, mysterious symbolism. You can admire the masterpiece in
the museum’s Department of Historical Art.

Accommodation
Accommodation
all the available options. It all depends on
how much money you want to spend and
what you are aiming at when choosing
your accommodation. Depending on your
requirements, you have 2 choices.
Option 1: Dormitory
Why?
A dormitory – if you’re into partying your way through
your studies, meeting a lot of new people, living close
to your place of study and want to avoid spending too
much, this is the place for you.
What?
tions as to whether the students’ computers have illegal programming e.g. for downloading music or films.
They will also check if the copies of your system and
programs themselves are legal and not pirated. If you
have guests in your room, they must leave at 23.00 or
24.00, depending on which dormitory you’re staying
in. If someone wants to sleep over in your room, he/
she must inform the dormitory administrator and pay
a fee (about 4 EUR). Your roommates will then be
asked to sign a permission slip in order for your guest
to stay. You are allowed to organise parties of up to 30
people, but must again get the permission of the administrator to do so.
Option 2:
Most rooms in student dormitories are double rooms,
but there are also single and triple rooms. Rooms are
equipped with furniture such as single beds, desks,
and closets. In some dormitories, the occupants share
bathrooms among a couple of rooms. There is a fridge
to share with other students, but no kitchen utensils
such as pots, plates, forks or knives. Dormitories don’t
provide soap, towels, or toilet paper. In each dormitory
there is a laundry for your use.
If you have a little more money to spend and need a lot
more personal space than is available in a dormitory, if
you like inviting people and don’t want to ask anyone’s
permission to do so you should consider renting a flat.
Basically, if you want to feel at home.
How much?
Where?
Be prepared to pay a one month deposit (approx. 100
EUR). The monthly fee is also about 100 EUR, again, depending on which dormitory are you staying in.
Wherever you want to – in the city centre, by the sea,
or closer to your faculty – it’s up to you. The location
is your choice, but always remember the distance you
will have to travel on your way to the university or to
work.
Useful information
Erasmus students can enter their dormitory room at
any time during the day or at night. The dormitory
administrator, who’s bound to sit there 24/7, will give
you the keys. A thing worth mentioning is that the
dormitory administrators sometimes conduct inspecInternational Student Guide

Flat or apartment rental
Why?
What?
Most apartments for rent are fully furnished, with kitchens and bathrooms, furniture and (depending on the
standard) also a TV. It is important that the flat has the
23
Accommodation
Internet, so remember to ask. If you think a whole flat
is too big for you, it is also possible to rent a room with
other students or a family, whichever you prefer.
How?
There are practically no offers of flats in English, so it
would be great if you could get someone to help you
with translating the offers. But if you familiarise yourself with how to go about renting a flat, we believe
that even lack of language will not be a huge barrier.
How to look for a place to live? There are a lot of ways
to find an apartment:
Internet
The web is the best method of looking for someplace
to live. There are many websites which are dedicated to advertisements for rental flats. The real estate
section allows you to search for flats according to
different criteria:
price
type of apartment (studio flat, two-bedroom flat
etc.)
size of living area
location (region, city, district)
Before you start searching, try to think about what
you need. Work out your expectations and requirements clearly.
Newspapers
Polish newspapers and magazines are still a very
common way of looking for somewhere to live. It
is worth knowing that once a week the newspaper
Gazeta Wyborcza has a housing supplement. What’s
more, every Wednesday in newspaper kiosks you can
buy Anonse, a magazine which is full of local real estate ads (Gdańsk, Sopot, Gdynia). Bear in mind that
most advertisements are in Polish.
International Student Guide
24
Real estate agencies
Finding a flat with the help of real estate agencies has
a lot of advantages. First of all, they will review and
monitor the real estate market to find you what you
want. Secondly, they will send you offers by e-mail,
and arrange meetings with owners of the flats you’re
interested in.
And most importantly, they will make sure that the
contractual part of the rental agreement is done
properly and according to the law.
Remember, if you decide to rent an apartment found
and presented to you by an agent, you will have to
pay a commission fee. Usually this amount depends
on the flat’s value and will usually start at half a
month’s rent.
Acquaintances
Nowadays, lots of apartments are rented through
acquaintances. It is good to ask friends, your employer, and other people you meet whether they know
someone who is looking for a tenant.
How much?
Basically, the price depends on the location (local
amenities, transportation facilities), the number of
bedrooms, appliances, and the standard of accommodation. Most flats in Gdańsk, Sopot, and Gdynia
are furnished: kitchens are fully-fitted with a fridge,
oven and dishwasher.
All the administrative charges that you find in advertisements are obligatory and should be added to
the rent. These administrative charges will vary from
100 PLN to 700 PLN a month. It is important that you
find out whether the cost of the apartment/room
includes all utility payments such as heating, water,
electricity, and the Internet, as sometimes it does not.
Accommodation
1 room apartment – from 800 PLN up to 1500 PLN
(the upper limit seems a reasonable one, but obviously you’ll always be able to find something more
expensive ) + administrative charges.
2 room apartment – 1000 PLN up to 1800 PLN+ administrative charges.
3 room apartment – 1200 PLN up to 2200 PLN + administrative charges.
When renting a single room in a house or in an apartment, the price is often the amount you’ll have to pay,
with no additional charges or fees for electricity, water, and heating.
1 room in a house – 400 PLN up to 800 PLN.
Additional information
Landlords normally require a deposit of one or two
months’ rent. You will get the deposit back when
moving out, but only if you leave the flat in good
condition.
Always ask your potential landlord how long he/she
wants to rent the flat for.
When signing an agreement, you should list all the
appliances and furniture in the flat and attach the list
to the agreement.
The flat’s owner may have spare key to your rented
flat, but he/she has no right to enter the apartment
when you are not there.
There are two types of contract: standard and temporary. The second one means that you plan to live in
the apartment only for a specified time.
You can negotiate the rent. This costs nothing. Sometimes you can get unexpected results.

calling to your family and relatives using your own mobile
