Artus Court
Dwór Artusa
A medieval merchants' guild assembly hall beneath Gothic star vaults, with what is said to be Europe's tallest Renaissance tile fireplace.
Artus Court takes its name from the legend of King Arthur. From the 15th century, it was a place where Gdańsk merchants and guild members gathered, feasted, and traded, and later it became an exchange. The hall is supported by slender granite columns beneath Gothic star vaults, decorated with ship models and painted ornaments. In one corner stands a Renaissance tile fireplace about 11 meters tall, made of more than 500 painted tiles. It now belongs to the Gdańsk Museum. Tickets cost about 25 to 35 złoty, and a combined ticket with the Main Town Hall is available. It is closed on Mondays.
Opening hours
About 10:00 am–6:00 pm (closed Mondays; check official website)
