Part of the Gdańsk History Museum. Inside the museum you can also see a carillon and views from the top of the tower.
Old mill (built 1350), with 18 water wheels up to 1939 produced 200 tonnes of flour daily, but is now a shopping centre.
Kaplica Królewska
Differs from typical Gdańsk architecture.
Wielka Zbrojownia
Old city arsenal from 1605. Great example of Dutch design with astonishing stonework. These days the Great Armoury belongs to the Gdansk Academy of Fine Arts and visiting inside is only possible during art exhibitions which are organised from time to time by the Academy.
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).
