Amber Museum, Amber museum in Śródmieście, Gdańsk, Poland
The Museum of Amber exhibits natural amber specimens, finished products, and jewelry pieces within a dedicated collection space in Gdańsk.
The institution demonstrates the centuries-old tradition of amber craftsmanship in Gdańsk, which emerged as a major center for amber trade since medieval times.
The museum presents exhibits that illustrate the deep connection between amber processing and the regional identity of northern Poland through various artifacts.
