Przymorze Wielkie

Przymorze Wielkie is a residential neighborhood in northern Gdańsk with an area of about 3 square kilometers. The district extends to the Baltic Sea coast and features sandy beaches alongside housing complexes built over several decades.

The district originated from a former church village belonging to the Oliwa abbey before becoming a modern residential area. Throughout the 20th century it was systematically developed as housing for Gdańsk's expanding population.

The district maintains strong connections to Polish traditions while incorporating contemporary urban living through its residential complexes and community spaces.

The neighborhood has the Kołobrzeska shopping center and a well-developed network of bicycle paths connecting different areas. Access to the beach and green spaces is walkable, making the area easy to explore on foot.

The neighborhood contains an approximately 860-meter-long residential building on Obrońców Wybrzeża street, which is one of Europe's longest housing structures. This remarkable building shapes the streetscape and exemplifies ambitious 20th-century housing design.
