Audio tour · Solidarity Museum (European Solidarity Centre)

You're standing at the European Solidarity Centre in Gdańsk. Take a good look at the walls of this building. They lean slightly and look like the hulls of ships. That's no accident. The Polish firm FORT Architects wanted to remind you of the ships once built at the Gdańsk Shipyard. Their design won an international competition back in 2007.
