2. Many curious monuments are in my city , especially in the Old Town. These monuments are: Neptune's Fountain is nearby and this beautiful fountain is considered to be the symbol of Gdańsk. During WWII the fountain was hidden from the Nazis and only returned to its rightful place in 1954.

3. Golden Gate originally Langgasser Tor , is one of the most notable tourist attractions of the city. From the West side figures represent: Pax (Peace), Libertas (Freedom), Fortuna (Wealth) and Fama (Fame).

4. Zuraw (the wooden Crane) was originally built in the 14th Century and rebuilt in the 15th Century after a devastating fire. The crane was used for loading cargo ships and was also used for ship construction.
