    This is very good, but a bit sanitized. You seem to want to avoid the reason why so many buildings are in the Dutch or Flemish style. Could it be that many of the original inhabitants were Dutch or Flemish or. God forbid, Germans? As Poland emerges from communism it has started to deal with its past, including the fact that 5 million Germans were forced out and replaced by 5 million Poles who had come from what is now western Ukraine and Belarus. Most honest Poles will tell you that they are inhabiting a city and a region that was not really all that Polish, but was at best partly Polish in some places. They will tell you that their ancestors came from places such as Lvov and Wilna. At least they are being honest.

      Gdańsk was razed to the ground during the war, and after the war it was not rebuilt but built again. It was the same with Wroclaw, Szczecin, Legnica, Elblag, Olsztyn, Warsaw and Poznan and several smaller cities. The cause of this terrible destruction was the Germans.

I visited Gdansk in the autumn of 2020 and I love the place but I wished I could have seen your video before it. I am actually planning a second visit now so your guide will be very useful indeed. The Solidarity museum is so vibrant and fill me with such awe. I remember the days of 1980 very well and it is inspiring to see what change is possible if we unite and just put our collective minds to it. Thank you!

    Lech Walenca war damals unser Nachbar. Wir haben mit seinen Kindern im Hof gespielt. Ich habe noch Bilder von der damaligen Korrespondenz mit den Minister und meinen Onkel Robert Peplinski in Warschau, wo es um dieses Denkmal ging. Der Minister schaute sich das Model dieses Denkmal an und sagte , es sollte so klein bleiben, wie das Modell, aber mein Onkel meinte, wenn ich das Denkmal mache, dann soll es so groß sein, damit jeder es sieht. Ich habe auch Bilder mit den einzelnen Platten am Denkmal die meine Tante in Ihrem Attelier erstellt hat. Schaut mal in die Brigida Kirche in Gdansk, dort hatte die Bewegung Solidarnosc Unterschlupf gefunden. Der Pfarrer wurde in den 80 er Jahren gefoltert und anschließend getötet, weil er dieser Bewegung Unterschlupf geleistet hatte. Dort sieht man sehr viel von meiner Tante Elzbieta Szczodrowska und meinen Onkel Robert Peplinski . Dankeschön für deine Ausführungen, ganz toll dargestellt. 🙏

Ich fahre jedes Jahr in die wunderschöne Stadt, Sie hat Geschichte, Kultur, Moderne, pulsierende Stadt, wunderschöne Natur, ganz tolle Menschen und ich habe natürlich auch die Schattenseiten mit Solidarnosc erlebt. Meine Tante war die Künstlerin Elzbieta Szczodrowska, die hat damals Gdansk mit aufgebaut und war Professorin an der Kunstakademie in Gdansk. Sie hat mit meinem Onkel Robert Peplinski bei der Solidarnosc Bewegung mitgemacht und das Denkmal Solidarnosc für die Verstorbenen von 1970 in der Lenin Werft erstellt. Leider ist Sie und mein Onkel verstorben, aber ich fahre trotzdem jedes Jahr in meine Heimat und werde dort wieder hinziehen, weil diese Menschen Ihre Kultur, Ihre Familien , Geschichte und Natur zu schätzen und pflegen wissen. Dankeschön für deine Ausführung über diese wunderschöne Stadt. 🙏

    This is a wonderful video introducing me to Poland. I ran into an English gent whilst on Grimsey Island a couple of weeks ago. He told another woman & I at the guesthouse, that we should visit Poland because it's a beautiful country with a lot of history & very nice people etc. I said, okay. I will. During the last week of my trip, I met a super nice guy from Poland who was also touring Faroe Islands & he agreed with what the English gent told me. So now, I've added Gdańsk, Poland to my September itinerary. Is there a link to Agnes' tour? I'm a little late to viewing this & not sure if I missed it mentioned in comments already. Thank you!
