Visit the Shipyard with Subject ive Bus Line, See Lech Wałęsa’s Workplace
An unusual bus and bus route through historic sites of Gdańsk Shipyard. The remarkable journey takes place on board
a vintage bus, Jelcz RTO – the so-called ‘cucumber’. The passengers are accompanied by former Gdańsk Shipyard
workers who take them on a guided tour of their old workplace and share their personal subjective experience of the
history of the shipyard and its economic and political role. The bus stops are mapped out by remarkable events and
places: the wall which Lech Wałęsa jumped over, the slipways, the BHP Hall (Occupational Health and Safety Hall)
where the August Agreement was signed and Lech Wałęsa’s workplace.

the order and its knights. Our chef – instructor is a graduate
of Kurt's Scheller Culinary Academy as well as one of the
most prestigious culinary schools in the world – the Culinary
