Uphagen House
Dom Uphagena
An 18th-century merchant's residence museum on Long Lane, faithfully recreating the Rococo interiors of Gdańsk's middle class.
Uphagen House at No. 12 Long Lane was bought and remodeled in 1775 by Johann Uphagen, a city councillor and historian. It is also Poland's only museum of a burgher's home. Visitors can tour the entrance hall, salon, music room, dining room, and bedroom. The hand-painted floral and insect decorations on the walls are exquisite, and the back rooms hold the kitchen and servants' quarters. It is not large, and a visit takes about 40 minutes. Admission is about 20 złoty, and the museum is closed on Mondays.
