Small Mill in Gdańsk, Medieval monument in central Gdańsk, Poland
The Small Mill is a Gothic building in central Gdańsk consisting of two sections connected by a vault spanning the Radunia Canal. Its western facade displays typical Gothic features with pointed details and structural characteristics of the period.
The building was constructed around 1400 and initially served as a storage facility for goods from the Great Mill rather than for grinding grain. Over time, it remained an important part of the city's urban landscape and heritage.
The building displays Hanseatic Gothic style, showing how medieval trade connected Gdańsk with other Baltic cities. You can see in its design how commerce shaped the character of the town.
Since 1967, the building has housed the Polish Angling Association and welcomes visitors during regular office hours. Keep in mind that access and opening times depend on the organization's activities and schedule.
Massive buttresses were added to the eastern wall during the second half of the 15th century and remain a defining feature today. This reinforcement shows how the structure was adapted over time to ensure its stability and durability.

Gdansk invites you to explore centuries of history through its cobblestone streets and brick buildings. Large gothic churches stand next to Renaissance houses, while signs of its seafaring past are found throughout the city. Walking along the Royal Route, you see historic gates, lively squares, and medieval houses with colorful facades. The Saint Mary’s Church, built between 1343 and 1502, impresses with its size and allows visitors to view its medieval astronomical clock and painted altars. Gdansk also holds key moments from the 20th century. At Westerplatte, a historic peninsula, the first shots of World War II rang out on September 1, 1939. Later, in the city’s shipyards, the Solidarity movement started and changed European history. These events are remembered in several museums that tell the stories of civilians and soldiers. For art and culture lovers, Gdansk offers treasures at every turn. The Artus Court, once a meeting place for merchants, combines gothic and Renaissance styles. Mariacka Street sparkles with shops selling amber, a local gem treasured for centuries. The National Museum shows European paintings from the Middle Ages to today, including Hans Memling’s Last Judgment triptych. The Abbot’s Palace, a rococo building from the 18th century, now hosts contemporary art shows. These places together tell the story of a prosperous trading city that has been rebuilt over the years, always alive and looking ahead.
