History

The Motława river is the oldest part of the trade port. On the eastern bank granaries had been erected since the 14th century. The number was growing up to 300. The island was created when the New Motława was dug out in 1576. In the Second World War, most of the granaries on the northern part were demolished during the siege of Danzig in March 1945.
