BHP Hall, Labor history museum in Młyniska, Poland.
BHP Hall is a museum housed in a former building of the Gdansk Shipyard dedicated to labor history and the region's industrial past. The space displays documents, photographs, and preserved objects from the workshops and working life spanning several decades.
The building was created in the 1930s as a gathering place for workers during a period of rapid industrial growth at the shipyard. It became a site of significant events in the Polish labor movement and kept this role for many decades.
You can see photographs and personal stories from shipyard workers, along with old tools and machinery from different periods. These objects tell the story of the labor movement and working life on the factory floor.
The location sits within the former shipyard area and is reachable on foot from the city center. For guided visits, you should call ahead to arrange a tour so the staff can prepare in advance.
The hall can still be used as an event space accommodating up to a thousand people, blending its industrial appearance with modern functions. This makes it an unusual place where history and contemporary life meet in a single room.
