An impressive memorial to the fallen workers of the shipyard in 1970, erected in the 1980s at the birthplace of Solidarność (Solidarity).

Those of us who remember Lech Walesa and the struggles of the Gdansk Shipyard workers, and the knock-on affect of what they achieved, will find this area fascinating. There is a little bar right at the famous shipyard gate where you can sit and ponder the history of the place and pay tribute to those who fell there in the unrest of 1970.

When we visited Poland I was surprised with how much I enjoyed everything beyond my expectations. Originally, I thought how enjoyable can this be. Man, was I wrong. There is something about history. Reading is one thing but, to be there and seeing, touching is another. To see where it began was a moving experience. Maybe, not to the everyday citizens but, to people who lived through it. History is needed in our lives or we forget and we are doomed to repeat the past.
