Z Notatnika Lokalnego Przewodnika Wstęp
Oliwskie impresje z notatnika lokalnego przewodnika Wstęp Warto spacerować i przyglądać się starej Oliwie, dlatego proponujemy kolejne trasy zwiedzania uroczych uliczek na- szej dzielnicy. Będzie to też podróż w czasie, bo przywołamy najważniejsze wydarzenia z przeszłości kształtujące obraz współczesnej Oliwy. Dzięki nim Oliwa szybko nadrabiała zaległości cywilizacyjne, aby na przełomie XIX i XX wieku z prowincjonalnej osady stać się coraz sławniejszym kuror- tem i wymarzonym miejscem do zamieszkania. W naszych opowieściach często będą się przewijać refleksje dotyczące wpływu, jaki na rozwój Oliwy miało pojawienie się komu- nikacji kolejowej i tramwajowej. Jest to godne podkreślenia tym bardziej, że 1 lipca 2020 roku obchodziliśmy 150. rocznicę inauguracji połączenia kolejowego z Gdańskiem i Koszalinem. Spacery po proponowanych trasach przypomną też o urbani- zacyjnym boomie budowlanym z początku istnienia Wolnego Miasta Gdańska. To wtedy powstawały nowoczesne osiedla mieszkaniowe, jak te przy dzisiejszych ulicach Derdowskiego – Husa – Drzymały – Kręckiego – Wąsowicza – Miraua reali- zujące ideę miasta-ogrodu. Wspominać będziemy przedwo- jennych mieszkańców Oliwy, polsko- i niemieckojęzycznych, z nadzieją, że odsłanianie przeszłości pozwoli nam lepiej po- czuć ducha miejsca. „Ludzie, z którymi dzielimy przestrzeń (nawet w innym cza- sie), stają się kimś więcej niż poprzednikami – są sąsiadami w czasie” – te słowa Olgi Tokarczuk oddają złożoność naszych relacji z poprzednimi mieszkańcami Oliwy, uświadamiając, że poniemieckie rzeczy, kamienice czy ludzkie historie splatają się z losami polskich spadkobierców i nie wolno odwracać się do nich plecami. II 1 1. Spacer z Ewą Oslislok: dworzec i okolice W 2020 roku przypadła 150. rocznica wydarzenia, które miało znaczący wpływ na rozwój Oliwy. 1 lipca 1870 roku uruchomiono połączenie kolejowe między Gdańskiem i Koszalinem.

It’s worth coming here even if only for a while to bask in the sunlight and breathe in the precious iodine from the sea breeze. The beach is surrounded by many ﬁsh restaurants, with a long wooden pier stretching out into the sea. It is ideal for walking. 1200 Set your watch at the Lighthouse in Nowy Port The Time Sphere is lowered from the mast at the top of the historic brick lighthouse at 12:00, 14:00, 16:00 and 18:00 sharp. It used to serve ship masters to regulate their navigation instruments. Today it’s just a tourist attraction, but it’s well worth visiting; what is more, the open gallery at the top provides a splendid view of the mouth of the River Vistula and Westerplatte. 1300 Take a ride on the F5 water tram to Westerplatte and Wisłoujście Fortress Nowy Port and the environs of the old mouth of the Vistula at the Bay of Gdańsk have many attractions.

Save $1,000 per couple when booked by December 6, 2019 Howdy, Ags! In the 1930’s, the journey to World War II began in the private meeting rooms in Berlin and raucous public stadiums across Germany where the Nazis concocted and then promoted their designs for a new world order, one founded on conquest for land and racial-purity ideals. As they launched the war in Europe by invading Poland on September 1, 1939, Hitler and his followers unleashed a hell that would return to its birthplace in Berlin fewer than six years later. The Traveling Aggies are honored to partner with The National WWII Museum on a unique and poignant travel program, The Rise and Fall of Hitler’s Germany. This emotional journey will be led by WWII scholar and author Dr. Alexandra Richie, an expert on the Eastern Front and the Holocaust. Guests will travel through Germany and Poland, exploring historical sites and reflecting on how it was possible for the Nazis to rise to power and consequently bring destruction and misery across Europe.
