A surprisingly peaceful city, especially for its architecture. Beware of the cobblestones: walking shoes are highly recommended.

This is one of the Gdańsk landmarks I most enjoyed seeing from the outside. The monumental structure, which encloses Długi Targ from the Motława River, is truly impressive – especially with its high roofs, three decorative gables, and rich details characteristic of Dutch Mannerism. The gate was built between 1564 and 1568, replacing the older Kogi Gate. Its design is attributed to Regnier of Amsterdam and Hans Kramer of Dresden. It was intended as a residence for Polish kings visiting Gdańsk, although ultimately none of them took up permanent residence there. In the 17th and 18th centuries, it hosted ceremonies, festivals, and performances. I was particularly drawn to the beautiful, symmetrical façade, the stone window frames, pilasters, friezes, and decorative gables. Another interesting detail are the four passages on the ground floor – originally there were only three, with the fourth added in the 19th century. The building suffered significant damage in 1945, but was rebuilt between 1950 and 1953, restoring its historic form. Today, it houses a branch of the National Museum in Gdańsk, which hosts temporary exhibitions. This time, I didn't have time to enter the museum, so I had to settle for a walk around the building. And I don't regret it – the architecture of the Green Gate itself is so impressive that it's worth taking a moment to examine it closely from both sides. It looks especially beautiful from the Długi Targ Street side, where it forms a natural culmination of the entire street.

I visited because I was interested in a specific exhibition. The 25 złoty entrance fee meant I had to listen to the "employees'" private conversations... At Zofia Rydet's photography exhibition, a longer video was playing, and there was nowhere to sit. Both exhibitions are worth seeing.

A must-see when visiting Gdańsk! Located at the end of the Long Market Square, just before the river, the Green Gate impresses with its remarkably well-preserved Dutch Mannerist architecture. It's one of the city's most beautiful historical passages, perfect for taking stunning photos, strolling along the quays, or simply admiring the building's details before exploring the museum's exhibits.

It was built between 1564 and 1568 on the site of the medieval Cog Gate. It is one of the first examples of Dutch Mannerism in Gdańsk. The construction was carried out by Master Regnier from Amsterdam and city architect Hans Kramer, although its design is uncertain. Interestingly, it wasn't solely a city gate. Its representative floor was intended as the residence of Polish rulers visiting Gdańsk, although in practice, ceremonies, festivals, and performances were also held there. The ground floor housed the city's weighing house. The building was severely damaged in 1945 and later rebuilt.

A very pleasant place with a very elegantly curated exhibition. The cabin crew is very professional and friendly... But why is the museum open until 5:00 PM during peak summer season??? This is, of course, a rhetorical question, because most museums don't base their strategy on visitors, and if you are going to visit, let them do it when the museum staff is willing to accommodate them... so preferably until 3:00 PM, because after that, it's not open anymore. What if it were privatized? Maybe they would be open when I'm coming back from the beach, and I'd love to see something else in the museum.

Brama Zielona (Green Gate) is the largest and most sumptuous gate of the Old Town, spectacularly closing the view of Długi Targ Street and opening onto the Motława River promenade. It was built between 1564 and 1568 under the direction of the architect Regnier from Amsterdam, replacing an older water gate. Unlike other gates that had a strictly defensive or customs role, the Green Gate was conceived as a monumental palace intended to accommodate Polish monarchs when they visited Gdańsk (although very few kings actually spent the night here). Its wide facade, with four passage arches on the ground floor, is richly decorated with small exposed brick and sculptural decorations that are strikingly reminiscent of the architecture of Amsterdam or Antwerp. Today, the palace building houses a branch of the National Museum in Gdańsk, where temporary art and photography exhibitions are held, as well as the former office of President Lech Wałęsa.

Until October 31, 2026, at the Green Gate Branch of the National Museum in Gdańsk, we can admire the works of renowned artist and photographer Zofia Rydet (1911-1997). "The World of Feelings and Imagination" comprises nearly 100 photographs, organized into 17 series with evocative titles: Landscapes, Birth, Motherhood, Expectations, Departures, Behind the Wall of Life, Lovers, Sentimental Ballad, Holocaust, Mannequins, Phantoms, Longing, Loneliness, Threat, Obsessions, Transformations, Hope. Most of the photographs are black and white, evoking vivid emotions. The exhibition may be more for a more sophisticated audience. Nevertheless, it's an interesting exhibition—I recommend it! The museum is closed on Mondays. On other days, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tickets are standard PLN 25, concessions PLN 20.

The Green Gate of Gdańsk was built between 1564-1568. On one side is the Motława River Bridge and on the other, the Old Market Square. The building above the gate follows the architectural form of Dutch Mannerism. That is, the lack of naturalness and the sophisticated style of art. The building and the Gate are not green. Perhaps the Gate was named so from the greenish stone of the construction of the adjacent bridge, which bears the same name. The building was constructed in such a way as to provide accommodation for the officials of its time. Later it also hosted the office of Lech Walesa. Today it is part of the City Museum with permanent collections and temporary exhibitions.

The Green Gate is located right next to the Long Market. Its impressive facade makes it unique and adds atmosphere to the walk. We walked around and admired the tenement houses and architecture. Each one was different and unique. It was just a walk, but the experience was impressive. I noticed how the drainage system and gutters were constructed. All the streets were charming and atmospheric.

The Green Gate (Zielona Brama) is one of the most important, largest and most beautiful architectural monuments in the city. It is located at the end of the Royal Road (Droga Królewska), where it closes the Long Market (Długi Targ). It connects it with the Motława River embankment and, across the Green Bridge, with Wyspa Spichrzów. It was built in 1564-1568 and replaced the older Gothic Kogga Gate (named after the type of medieval merchant ship koga).

This is the largest city gate in Gdańsk. Built in the Dutch Mannerism style between 1564 and 1568, it connects the Main Town with Granary Island (Wyspa Spichrzów) along with the Green Bridge. This is where we enter the riverbank along the Motława River, which flows through Gdańsk. Crowds of tourists pass through here every day. It's also worth visiting in the evening, when it's beautifully illuminated. A branch of the Gdańsk Museum is also located here.

A graceful place, combining the past and present of Gdańsk's history. From here, you can sail to Westerplatte on a historic journey to witness the heroism of the Polish defenders of this bridgehead, or to Hel, another, equally historic site of courage, and admire the beauty of these corners of our country. Here, you can also visit the first Polish ship built after the war, the "Sołdek."

If you want to enter the city through the gate where kings were welcomed, you're in the right place. After entering through the gate that opens to the historical center of Gdańsk, you will arrive at the most impressive part of the city. Further on, you will be greeted by the historical thermometer and barometer, the famous Neptune statue, the historical town hall, and on a side street, St. Mary's Cathedral awaits you.

The oldest water gate, mentioned in 1357, occupied the entire second floor by the largest chamber in the then Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth – the Great Hall. In the 16th century, the building was designated as a royal residence.

We attended an exhibition of modern painting, and it was worth seeing how the younger generation works today. One thing we really disliked, even repulsive, was that the art descriptions were glued with pink masking tape. It was very unsightly and spoiled the atmosphere of the place. We find this unacceptable, and we're sorry someone approached it this way! You can also see it in our photos; judge for yourself.

Stopped by the Green Gate (Zielona Brama) in Gdańsk and it looks beautiful from the outside. The grand, historic facade stands out right by the river and makes a great photo spot while walking along the waterfront. Even without going inside the museum, it’s definitely worth a quick visit.

The Green Gate of the Main City (formerly the Cog Gate) is probably the oldest of Gdańsk's water gates, first mentioned in 1357. Registered as a historical monument, No. 295, February 24, 1967. The Green Gate is the first example of Dutch Mannerism in Gdańsk, a style that gave the city its distinctive beauty. I highly recommend visiting it.

The GREEN GATE (Grünes Tor), a water gate at the eastern end of Długi Targ, closing the Royal Route from the Motława River. Built between 1564 and 1568 at the Green Bridge, it replaced the more modest, Gothic Kogi Gate. The designer is unknown; the construction manager until 1565 was Master Regnier from Amsterdam, who was replaced by city architect Hans Kramer. Built in the Dutch Mannerism style, made of fine Amsterdam brick and stone elements, it has a basement, four stories, and a five-story wing to the southwest, added around 1573. The main section features four (originally three) passageway arcades, partially decorated with rustic ornamentation (evoking military associations). The lower sections of the building are divided into six equal sections by pilasters of stacked orders. The building is covered with a gable roof, with decorative gables on both sides, topped with statues, concealing two- and three-story attics. The gate boasts rich sculptural decorations intended to demonstrate the city's importance (seven replicated coats of arms of Poland, Royal Prussia, Gdańsk, and, secondarily, the Hohenzollern dynasty), 20 figures on the gables, 4 antique-style busts in cartouches, 4 busts in tondos, 12 heads above the tondos). The southern part housed the city guard's headquarters on the ground floor, and the night guard on the first floor. The spacious interior of the second floor was used for public purposes (various celebrations, festivals, feasts, lotteries, and theatrical performances). In 1567, a city scale was installed in the northern part of the ground floor (operating until 1868). In 1570 and 1716, negotiations were held regarding the transfer of the building to Polish monarchs during their stays in Gdańsk (for example, in 1646, during the stay of the Polish Queen Louise Maria Gonzaga, wife of Władysław IV, a banquet hall was set up on the second floor of the building). From 1746 to 1830, it housed the Natural History Society (with an exhibition of its collections), and in 1831, it was rebuilt according to a design by Carl Samuel Held; the gable roof and gables were replaced by a third floor covered with a flat roof, framed on all four sides by a balustrade (using masonry and stonework elements from the former gables). Since 1879, it has housed the West Prussian Natural History Museum. In 1883, a fourth passageway was constructed (decorated with the Hohenzollern coat of arms). In 1886, an attempt was made to restore the building's former appearance (distorted gables, a mansard roof instead of a gable roof), and the upper floor of the hall was divided into two stories. In 1945, it burned down, with part of the walls collapsing. In 1946, the upper stories of the southwest wing and the gable finials were demolished. Rebuilt in 1950–1953 (according to a design by Kazimierz Macur, with the gable roof and Renaissance gables restored), it housed the State Enterprise for Monument Conservation Workshops from 1953–1992, and was subsequently used by the Gdańsk Pomerania Development Agency. Due to its takeover by the Marshal's Office in 2001–2003, it was under conservation (the team of Barbara and Ludwik Brzuskiewicz). During work on January 23, 2002, the lime mortar under the pedestal of the ground floor column was destroyed, along with approximately 20 square meters of the vaulting (pedestrian traffic through the gate was temporarily suspended at that time). Since 2004, it has been the property of the National Museum. Lech Wałęsa's office is also located here. The gate's name may have stemmed from the green-painted stone decorations, the wooden gates that closed the passages, or even the color of the original window glazing.

The Green Gate, or as it is called in Poland, the Brama Zielona, is the city gate in Gdansk. If you cross the bridge over the Motlawa River, you can already see the Green Gate. Once through the gate, you are already in the picturesque city center of Gdansk. The gate is not only beautiful from the river side, but also from the city center. The gate was built in the Flemish Mannerist style between 1564 and 1568.

The Green Gate is one of the most representative buildings in Gdansk's Old Town and a key gateway to the river. This Renaissance-style building has a majestic exterior, with red brick and stone accented by intricate carvings, exuding a rich historical atmosphere. Passing through the archway, you'll feel as if you've stepped into a medieval cityscape, where the streets and riverbanks complement each other, making it a perfect spot for strolling and taking photos. The Green Gate itself is part of a museum, hosting art exhibitions and cultural events, allowing visitors to enjoy the beauty of the architecture while also enriching their cultural experience. From here, you can walk to the Long Market and the river, making it an essential route for exploring the Old Town. The Green Gate is elegant and majestic during the day, and even more romantic at night when illuminated. Whether you're a history buff, an architecture fan, or just looking to soak up the atmosphere of Gdansk, a stop here is highly recommended.

The Green Gate itself isn't exactly spectacular, in my opinion, but it fits nicely into the atmosphere of the Long Market and marks the eastern terminus of the so-called Royal Route, the main tourist route in Gdańsk, which begins at the Upland Gate at its western end. It is likely the oldest water gate in Gdańsk, built in the Renaissance style around 1560. It currently houses the exhibition branch of the National Museum in Gdańsk and the Gdańsk Gallery of Photography.

The Green Gate in Gdańsk is one of the most beautiful structures in the Main City, and its name has sparked curiosity for years. There's no single, absolutely certain answer to its origins, but several interesting theories abound. One suggests that the name comes from the Green Bridge, which is located right next to the Gate. In the past, the bridge was partially wooden and likely painted green, which may have influenced the name of the entire area. Another theory links the name to the Gate's location – it led from the city towards open areas by the river, where there was significantly more greenery than in the densely built-up center. In this sense, the Green Gate was a kind of passage "from the city to the green." Some researchers also believe that the color green had symbolic meaning – it was associated with life, renewal, and hope, making it a fitting choice for a representative gateway to the city. Although no document clearly explaining this name has survived, it is most commonly accepted that the Green Bridge had the greatest influence on its creation.

The Green Gate in Gdańsk is absolutely stunning and hard to miss—its grand height and beautiful architecture immediately draw your attention. Visiting at the beginning of May, I found it to be incredibly busy, which is no surprise given its prime location. It sits right at the entrance to the Long Market (Długi Targ), which is the heart of Gdańsk’s historic city center.

Surrounded by countless attractions, shops, cafes, and museums, the Green Gate serves as a gateway—both literally and figuratively—to the best that Gdańsk has to offer. Whether you're walking along the Motława River, heading toward Neptune's Fountain, or just soaking in the charm of the Old Town, everything seems to revolve around this landmark.

It’s definitely a must-see if you're in the area—not just for the architecture, but also for the vibrant energy that surrounds it.

Walking through the Green Gate, we feel the atmosphere of the old city, as it was one of the main entrances to medieval Gdańsk. Interesting temporary exhibitions are regularly held inside the building – from classical painting to contemporary photography, which means that everyone will find something for themselves here. Stylish, atmospheric interiors perfectly match the presented art. It is also worth mentioning that the third floor houses the Gdańsk Gallery of Photography, which collects over 8,000 photographs, including unique photos from the 19th century. The place also has historical significance – it was here that President Lech Wałęsa's office was located in the past, which adds an additional symbolic dimension to the building. The Green Gate is not only a tourist attraction, but also a living cultural center: concerts, author meetings, conferences and other cultural events are organized here. The service is professional, and the atmosphere is conducive to peaceful sightseeing and reflection on art. It is worth noting that the building is open during temporary exhibitions, so it is a good idea to check the current program in advance. To sum up - Zielona Brama is a must-see on the map of Gdańsk for all lovers of art, architecture and history. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about the rich cultural heritage of Gdańsk and spend time in an inspiring atmosphere!

The Green Gate (Zielona Brama) in Gdańsk is a prominent historical landmark situated between the Long Market (Długi Targ) and the Motława River. Constructed between 1564 and 1568 by architects Regnier from Amsterdam and Hans Kramer from Dresden, it showcases Dutch-Flemish Mannerist architectural style. ​

Originally intended as a royal residence for visiting Polish monarchs, the Green Gate served this purpose only once, when Queen Marie Louise Gonzaga stayed there briefly in 1646. ​

Today, the Green Gate houses a branch of the National Museum in Gdańsk, hosting various exhibitions and cultural events. ​

Its architectural design, inspired by Antwerp City Hall, features four archways and ornate facades, making it a notable example of Dutch-Flemish Mannerism in Poland. ​

The Green Gate is the first example of Dutch Mannerism in Gdańsk, a style that gave the city its characteristic beauty. It was built in the years 1564–1568 by Regnier from Amsterdam and Hans Kramer from Dresden, as the Gdańsk residence of the kings of Poland. Together with the Golden and Upland gates, it connected the line of Długa Street and Długi Targ, known as the Royal Route. Further on, through the Green Bridge, the Stągiewna Gate and Długie Ogrody (Żuławska Gate), the route to Elbląg and Królewiec ran. Despite its purpose, the Green Gate did not host Polish kings. The future wife of Władysław IV, and later John Casimir, Maria Ludwika Gonzaga (11–20 February 1646), only stopped here in transit. However, it housed the Natural History Society, which was soon moved to the House of Naturalists.

The Green Gate is presumably the oldest of Gdańsk's water gates, first mentioned in 1357. The first example of the city's characteristic Flemish mannerist style in Gdańsk. Together with the Golden and High Gates, it borders a part of Long Street and the Long Market, called the Royal Route.

This is probably the most famous gates of all the historical coty of Gdansk.

Green Gate is one of the city's most notable tourist attractions. It is situated between Long Market (Długi Targ) and the River Motława.

With the Golden Gate and the Highland Gate, the Green Gate spans the Long Market and Long Street, together comprising the Royal Route. The Green Gate was clearly inspired by the Antwerp City Hall.[2] It was built 1568-71 as the formal residence of Poland's monarchs.[3] It is a masterpiece by Regnier (or Reiner van Amsterdam), an Amsterdam architect,[4] and reflects Flemish architectural influence in Gdańsk. Hans Kramer from Dresden was responsible for the construction plans.

On 11–20 February 1646 the future Queen of Poland, Marie Louise Gonzaga, was entertained here. In the late 18th century the Nature Society was housed here, but soon moved to the Naturalists' House (Research Society House).

Today the Green Gate houses the National Museum in Gdańsk. Exhibitions, meetings, conferences and shows are held here. The Gdańsk office of former Polish President Lech Wałęsa is located in one of the rooms.

Entrance to the Old Town This gate, which actually occupies the ground floor of an imposing building, opens the old town onto the quays, along the river. On the other side, it gives access to the Grand Market Square, then to Dluga Street. The view is more spectacular from the river side, provided you step back a little on the bridge.

The Green Gate is a 16th-century architectural gem. It is a water gate in the style of Dutch Mannerism, which was built in place of the earlier Kogi Gate, dating from the second half of the 13th century. Right next to it is a green bridge and the magical Motława waterfront with numerous cafes, restaurants and pubs.

The Green Gate of Gdansk, located in the heart of the old city, is a magnificent example of Renaissance architecture. Built between 1564 and 1568, this gate represented a symbol of prestige for the merchant city of Gdansk. Its impressive design and intricate stone decorations capture the attention of every visitor. The facade, adorned with statues and elaborate details, reflects the artistic influence of the Flemish Renaissance. Today, the Green Gate is not only a major tourist attraction, but also a place that hosts cultural events and exhibitions, making it a focal point for Gdansk's culture and history.

Our visit to the Green Gate in Gdansk was an enriching experience for the whole family. My mother, wife and I were enchanted by the architectural beauty and rich history of this impressive landmark. History and Current Context The Green Gate, situated at the end of the Długi Targ, is one of the oldest water gates in Gdansk, built between 1564 and 1568 by Regnier of Amsterdam and Hans Kramer of Dresden. Initially planned to be the residence of the kings of Poland, it ended up never being used for that purpose. Instead, it housed a variety of uses over the centuries, including the Natural History Society in the late 18th century. Today, the Green Gate serves as the headquarters of a department of the National Museum of Gdansk, offering a variety of temporary art exhibitions as well as hosting events and conferences. One of the highlights is the fact that former Polish President Lech Wałęsa had his office here until 2015. Curiosities 1. Architectural Influence: The Green Gate is a notable example of Dutch Mannerism in Gdansk, inspired by the style of the Antwerp City Hall. Its four arched passages mark the beginning of the Royal Route. 2. Historical Events: In February 1646, the future queen of Poland, Marie Louise Gonzaga, was received here with great pomp. Furthermore, the Green Gate has been a strategic point during several historical eras, from its construction to the present day. 3. Renovations and Modern Uses: The building has undergone several renovations over the years, ensuring that its structure and facade remain preserved and ready to welcome tourists and cultural events. Tips for Tourists • Cultural Exploration: Visit the temporary art exhibitions that frequently take place at Green Gate. They include both ancient and contemporary, Polish and foreign art. • Strategic Location: Green Gate is located in the heart of Gdansk, close to other attractions such as Neptune's Fountain and Ratusz Głównego Miasta. This makes it easy to include several interesting visits in a single tour. • Photography: The unique architecture and picturesque location make Green Gate an excellent location for photographs. Take the opportunity to capture the historic essence of Gdansk in your photos.

The Green Gate is an example of a water gate constituting an example of the 16th-century buildings of the so-called Długi Pobrzeże. There is a museum inside. In the past, the gate was a kind of palace for crowned heads visiting Gdańsk. The place is very characteristic, many people consider it a meeting point and a starting point for exploring the city. The Motława River flows in front of the gate, from where you can go on a boat trip, I recommend it
