A Dutch City in Poland? | The Forgotten Dutch History of Gdańsk/Danswijk (1358-2023)
Gdańsk, also known by its German name of Danzig, is a picturesque city on Poland’s Baltic coast. Visitors might feel a strong Low Countries vibe from its tall, narrow buildings with sleek facades lining the canals, looking more like Amsterdam or Antwerpen than Warsaw or Szczecin. Already since the Middle Ages, this city has had connections with what is today Belgium and the Netherlands, manifesting in various parts of its culture, architecture, and history as we will find out more about in this video. From the Hanseatic League and Flemish architects and painters, to the merchants of the Dutch Republic and Mennonites fleeing religious persecution to set up their own communities of Olędrzy, the history of Gdańsk has, in part, been shaped by people from the Low Countries.
