Green Gate (Brama Zielona)

Długi Targ is home to the Green Gate, a significant historical landmark that links the Long Market to the River Motława. Constructed between 1568 and 1571, this structure was intended as a residence for Polish kings. Its intricate façade and grand arches reflect the elegance of Renaissance design. While it never fulfilled its royal purpose, the building now houses the National Museum's Department of Photography, hosting various exhibitions and cultural events. Visiting during the summer offers a chance to experience Gdańsk's lively cultural scene, with plenty of activities nearby.
