About Gdańsk Główny

Gdańsk Główny is the main railway station of Poland's Baltic port city, a handsome neo-Gothic red-brick structure built by the Prussian state railways in 1900 that reflects the city's centuries-long German Hanseatic heritage. It serves as the hub for intercity trains to Warsaw and Kraków as well as the SKM Tricity suburban network connecting Gdańsk, Gdynia, and Sopot along the Baltic coast. The station's proximity to the historic Old Town and the famous Solidarity shipyards makes it the primary arrival point for visitors to one of Poland's most historically significant cities.
