Long Lane, Historic pedestrian street in Main Town, Poland.

Long Lane extends for 320 meters from the Golden Gate to the Long Market, featuring rows of colorful merchant houses and gothic facades.

During World War II, most structures on Long Lane were destroyed, with building number 71 remaining one of the few original structures from the 15th century.

The Renaissance building at number 45, known as the House of Polish Kings, displays figures of Greek deities within its decorative alcoves.

The street functions as a pedestrian zone with numerous restaurants, shops, and cultural institutions, including the Museum of Burgher Interiors at number 12.

The house numbers on Long Lane run in opposite directions on each side of the street, following an ancient Gdańsk street numbering tradition.
