Danzig Gdańsk

That illustration was great to do and has been published last year on this blog It is about Danzig Rail Station in Poland 🇵🇱 Gdańsk Główny railway station in Polish. I am reposting it on my blog, as I did not find it in my search. (Perhaps someone tried to illegally delete it)


It was great to illustrate this one and a challenge adding all the stylistic details while keeping the design relatively simple! This Rail Station was built during 1894 and 1900, the year it was actually officially opened. It has been destroyed during WWII and was restored after the war. It is interesting to add that there is a similar building design in Colmar, Alsace in France which used to be in German grounds. In this one two platforms serve long distance trains and tree closer regional commutes. The building has undergone some modernisations through time with the most important in 2017.

I have illustrated this station because I find it beautiful and Gdańsk looks like a great destination to visit and certainly this must be a prominent site in the area as well apart from the service it offers.

This is not an infographic. The content on these posts is sourced online and mostly on Wikipedia, which I personally find a reliable source!
