History of the Polish Baltic Philharmonic

The Polish Baltic Philharmonic named after Frédéric Chopin in Gdańsk is located on the picturesque island of Ołowianka, which lies by the Motława river. The history of this place dates back to the 19th century when a heat and power plant operated on Ołowianka. The old industrial character of the island is evident in the architecture of the Philharmonic building, which combines the rawness of brick construction with modern elements.

The Philharmonic building itself was adapted from the former heat and power plant after its closure in the 1990s. The modernization and transformation of the building lasted until 2007 when construction works were completed, and the modern headquarters of the Polish Baltic Philharmonic was opened. Today, the Philharmonic is one of the most important cultural centers in Gdańsk, attracting artists and music lovers from around the world.

The Polish Baltic Philharmonic enchants not only with its concerts but also with its unique architecture.

The interiors of the Philharmonic have been designed to provide the best acoustic conditions, making it one of the best places to listen to classical music in Poland. The main concert hall named after Frédéric Chopin can accommodate up to 1000 people and is equipped with state-of-the-art acoustic technologies that ensure excellent sound quality. It is here that the most important symphonic concerts, recitals, and music festivals take place, attracting thousands of music lovers each year.
