Combine a walk through the city and a visit in the Amber Museum.

One of the most characteristic attraction of Baltic region is amber. According to the legend, amber comes from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil in the biblical Garden of Paradise, hence it has been called "resin of Eden". In reality, it is the fossilized resin of coniferous trees extracted from open-cast mines or washed up on shore by the waves.

Amber Museum – Natural amber from Gdansk is special in its immense range of varieties, diverse colours and degree of transparency. This is why the museum presents an amazing collection of amber which was made in Gdansk in the 17th and 18th century. Learn how this refined gemstone is created through fossilization and about its' medicinal use, and get a chance to see some elaborate pieces crafted over centuries. The building of the museum itself is very interesting as the museum is located in the Great Mill.

The Great Mill was built by the Teutonic Knights in the 14th century. It was used not only to grind cereals into flour, but was also a warehouse and bakery. Huge mill wheels were set in motion by the nearby Radunia Canal. This facility, after modernization, functioned as a mill until 1945. Until 2016, there was a shopping center, a new seat for the Amber Museum in Gdansk is here.
Old Town – The city's 1,000 years of history have left a rich collection of buildings and monuments designed in a splendid mix of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque style.
