King's Gate
Brama Królewska
An 18th-century Prussian baroque city gate decorated with sculptures of Heracles and trophies, with a café inside.
The King’s Gate, also known as the Prussian Homage Gate, was built between 1725 and 1727. Together with the Harbour Gate, it was part of Prussian-era city defense works. Above the gate, carvings depict Heracles with the Hound of Hades, military banners, and trophies, symbolizing Prussian power. The gate passage now houses a café. It is located near the Philharmonic and the Dialogue Centre Przełomy, so you can stop by when visiting the concert hall.
