Gdańsk University Museum

Behind the Scenes at the University: Stories from Bielańska 5

Location:

Even if the walls of the University of Gdańsk are familiar to you, our newly opened permanent exhibition will surprise you with a fresh perspective. It's not just a story about the establishment and development of the university, which has been educating outstanding scientists, artists, and leaders since 1970. It is, above all, a journey through the lives of the people who created it. You will see unique memorabilia, archives, and photographs that will bring you closer to the student culture of past decades, groundbreaking research, and symbols of academic identity. Thanks to interactive elements and modern narrative, you will feel like a part of this extraordinary community.

What's happening at the museum now?

The museum isn't just about history. During St. Dominic's Fair, we invite you to special events that will let you see Gdańsk from a completely new perspective.

You are invited to visit our permanent exhibition and the latest temporary exhibition, „Generosity of Forms: Alfons Łosowski”. On August 11th, there will be a special curator's tour – a perfect opportunity to see „Generosity” in its entirety, including a space normally inaccessible to visitors!

In addition to this, every Tuesday of the St. Dominic's Fair, we are opening the hallway of the Pelplin Bishops' Courtyard for you. This is one of the few opportunities in the season to see a unique 17th-century bas-relief depicting the Old Testament parable of Susanna and the Elders.

Whether you are a graduate, a resident of Gdańsk, or a tourist, the University of Gdańsk Museum offers a unique experience. Come and discover how fascinating the world of science can be when it's told with passion and through the lens of human stories.
