Named after the merchant, Johann Uphagen, who bought this house in 1775. It was destroyed during the war in 1945, but completely rebuilt within ten years. In the 1990s, it was opened to the public. There are temporary exhibitions on the second floor. It is part of the Gdańsk History Museum.
The Uphagen House is a reconstructed 18th-century merchant house in Gdańsk, Poland, located at the Ulica Długa within the Royal Route in the historic Main City. It houses a museum, which is a branch of the local historical museum. The Uphagen house is one of only a few 18th-century merchant town houses in Europe that are open to visitors.

Złota Brama
Wieża Więzienna i Katownia
The viewing platform of the tower is open in summer months. This building also houses the Amber Museum.
Gdański Teatr Szekspirowski

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.
Brama Wyżynna
Also called Upplands Gate. It was built in 1576 as part of the city's fortifications. Once the main entrance to the city where the Polish Kings were officially welcomed.
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).
