가족과 함께한 그단스크에서의 일주일

게시됨: 05.11.2017

Saturday: Picking up mom and Lari at the airport and going out to eat for Micha and me.



Sunday: cozy breakfast, a two-hour city tour in stormy weather Herbert and cold temperatures. Since it is the only German, "official" city tour, it was accordingly well attended. It was accompanied by various sales units and "knowledge checks" by the guide. But it was still good, quite unlike my free walking tour that I did on my first weekend here. So I was able to add a few more stories afterwards and wasn't bored during the tour.
Justice and duty/piety are the foundation of all things. Or is it rum?

Half frozen, we staggered into "Mandu", which is said to have the best pierogi in the whole city (this thesis still needs to be tested by my own field studies :) ). Unusual: There is so much demand here that you cannot reserve on weekends - you wait until a table becomes available. Fortunately, we didn't have to wait long. We liked it there very much and we also got a good seat.

After breakfast at Café Ferber (very good coffee!) it went Monday on a church tour.

The Basilica Mariacka: Main church of Gdansk, houses many treasures. For example, the "Last Judgment" by Hans Memling (copy, the original is in the National Museum) and the astronomical clock by Hans Düringer from Nuremberg from the 15th century. Very beautiful church, unfortunately the new roof is leaking again. It also fell victim to fire several times, most recently in 2006, when the roof also collapsed. The church also houses the tomb of the astronomer Jan Hevelius.

Afterwards we went to the Dominican church. Very magnificent, it seemed a bit ostentatious for the rather small church. A lot of gold, in contrast to black.

The oldest church in Gdansk is St. Catherine's Church, without much frills, the walls raw. It fell victim to fire several times, most recently in 2006, when the roof also collapsed. The church also houses the tomb of the astronomer Jan Hevelius.

In the Brigittenkirche there is an incomplete amber altar. Very modern and reflects the many facets of the stone.

After the churches we went to the Centrum Solidarnosc, a chapter that I personally didn't know much about. Like in the Museum of the Second World War, there are interactive audio guides here, but the handling could be improved. After about 3 hours in the museum, you can relax and have a bite to eat in the conservatory.

What beautiful weather on Friday! So we went to Sopot, a part of the "TriCity" and rather the elegant area. Very touristy but still beautiful, it is located between Gdansk and Gdynia. Beautiful sandy beach is framed by a beautiful city center and is known for its nightlife. I didn't take my camera with me, it was a mistake.


Unfortunately, our desired restaurant was no longer at the specified location, so after a walk-intensive afternoon, we went to the nearest restaurant and then explored the pubs in Gdansk. Josef K., inspired by Franz Kafka, is very cozy. The hot chocolate was like a hot pudding - damn, I didn't want dessert after all! The retro bar was already full, so we went to Flisak, almost overlooked, with very unusual cocktails and great service. They also took the legal age requirements very seriously and demanded ID from Larissa and me despite the presence of a guardian. We laughed heartily, after all, the waiter himself was only 21.

Overall, however, we had to realize that cocktails are either very expensive or very small or both. The bar must be very well chosen if you want to watch your money.

Saturday we had breakfast, enjoyed the view of Gdansk from above and soaked up the sun a little more before we headed back to the airport.



It was beautiful! We saw a lot and also defied the bad weather with good spirits. And we ate a lot of delicious food. Thank you for your visit! It was a great pleasure. :)
