Differs from typical Gdańsk architecture.
The Royal Chapel, also known as the Holy Spirit Church and formally as the Holy Spirit, Andrew the Apostle, and John the Baptist Church, is a Baroque Roman Catholic church located in Śródmieście, Gdańsk. Completed in 1681 and consecrated in 1685, it is a notable example of Baroque architecture in the city. It is a part of St. Mary's Church and hosts Mass on certain occasions. It is on the regional heritage list.

Bazylika Mariacka
One of the largest Gothic churches in Europe and one of the three (almost equal sizes) second largest brick churches in the world. There is space for more than 20,000 people in the church. The church contains a large astronomical clock from 1464, with automata which display every day at 11:57. It is possible to take the stairs to the tower (78 m), but the view is not as inspiring as the one from Main Town Hall. Entry to the church is free — donations are appreciated! — but one must pay to visit the tower (20 zł, reduced price 10 zł).
Take an evening walk down one of Europe's most picturesque streets.
Ulica Mariacka
Dwór Artusa
Impressive merchants' hall, a symbol of the city's power in the 16th and 17th centuries, served as an exchange and as the seat of St. George and the brotherhoods of rich patricians. Now part of the Gdańsk History Museum.
Ratusz Głównego Miasta
The old city hall (built 1378-1492) has a museum inside showing off a nicely decorated room where the town council once met and some historic exhibits about the history of Gdańsk. There are also impressive photos of the destruction after World War II. It is possible to purchase tickets to the tower, which offers a great view of the surroundings and St. Mary's Church.
