Overview

For many, the Gdańsk Shipyard is the cradle of “Solidarity” and a symbol of the fall of communism in Europe. For fans of industrial buildings, it is a magical space where the industrial architecture of the late 19th century meets the early 20th century, where relics of communism intertwine with modern 21st century architecture.

The Gdańsk Shipyard is a place where imperialism changed into capitalism, where the industrial goals of Nazism changed into the industrial goals of socialism, where communism with the entire Iron Curtain changed into freedom, where the brutal hand of the free market changed the industrial space into a place of entrepreneurship, culture and entertainment.

We will start our tour at Plac Solidarności (next to Pomnik Poległych Stoczniowców 1970 Monument), from where we will take a journey through the dark years of communism, arriving at the Shipyard, where a lot happened and is still happening.

Discover with us a magical part of the city, a district of entertainment, art, history, industry and symbols. Come to the Gdańsk Shipyard Ucovered Tour by Walkative!

“Disappointment ”
I have already submitted a review. Disappointing is a biased account of what happened, nn there is any mention of the role of the Catholic church in ql serious lack period. Boring.

“Great tour of the Gdańsk Shipyard”
Our guide, Filip, was adept at leading the tour, keeping focus on the material and injecting fun anecdotes during our time with him. He was knowledgeable, answered questions and maintained a light mood while discussing heavy topics. Would definitely recommend; thanks, Filip!

“Top content”
I liked the shipyard even more than the main town tour because of the proximity of the Solidarity events. The tour itself covered both Solidarity events and shipyard history across its existence.
