Artus Court in Gdańsk is one of the city’s most iconic historical landmarks, located on the bustling Długi Targ (Long Market) in the heart of the Old Town. Originally built in the 14th century, it served as a meeting place for merchants, aristocrats, and the powerful brotherhoods that shaped Gdańsk's history. The building itself is named after the legendary King Arthur, reflecting its purpose as a symbol of chivalry, camaraderie, and trade. The architecture is stunning, showcasing a mix of Gothic and Renaissance styles. Inside, Artus Court houses an impressive array of historical artifacts, including grandiose wall paintings, intricate sculptures, and ornate interiors. The centerpiece of the hall is the massive Renaissance-style stove, which stands over 10 meters tall and is one of the largest of its kind in Europe. Each tile of the stove is decorated with symbolic figures, lending it both beauty and historical significance.

Beautiful building restored amazingly it's beyond belief. I would highly recommend this to anyone. A new thing I learnt was that the more floors they had the richer they were, so 4 floors meant they were very rich. This also contains a very historical piano.

The lady at the ticket box is extremely rude. I have been in Poland for two months and have had nothing but positive interactions until today. I said dobry and requested to purchase two tickets (1 regular, 1 senior/reduced). Her response was a shoulder shrug. I then again requested to buy tickets, and she flicked her hand at us in a manner that we were somehow annoying her, while she should be doing her job. I then again (3rd time) requested tickets and showed her our credit card, and she just starred at us. At this time, I give her a similar hand gesture back (of what do you want me to do), and she points at the credit card machine. Great, we would love to pay, but she still didn't put the ticket order in so we could. So finally, after starring at her, she does put our order in, and the cost comes up. The cost is incorrect since she decided to charge us for two regular tickets, but I am not even going to try and rectify the incorrect cost since she is so rude. The funny thing is that she helped two different guests behind us and was even capable of providing a welcome greeting. It wasn't a language barrier because one guy spoke English and was not treated in a way as we were. Do better.

Scam 25 pln for 2 rooms. The other floors are not accessible. We found out only later, when we already paid the full price. And nobody speaks English Avoid.

This historic place you cannot miss as it stands in the middle of the main Dluga street, right behind the Neptune fountain. Entry fee is around 5 Euros, little bit overpriced for what it offers, but still interesting. The house used to be the meeting place of aristocracy and rich merchants who formed brotherhoods here depending on their origin and business. Each of the brotherhood had its space beneath the Hall arcades, which they decorated with paintings, sculptures and other pieces of art (the tallest 11m ceramic tiles stove being the most interesting one). Apart from that, it served as a reception hall for celebrations and feasts, as well a courthouse and the seat of Corn Exchange. You need around half an hour to visit
