Uphagen's House

The Uphagen House is a reconstructed 18th-century merchant house in Gdańsk, Poland, located at the Ulica Długa within the Royal Route in the historic Main City. It houses a museum, which is a branch of the local historical museum. The Uphagen house is one of only a few 18th-century merchant town houses in Europe that are open to visitors.

History
The Uphagen house was purchased in 1775 by Johann Uphagen, a merchant, historian, art collector and city councilor. He remodeled it to suit the needs of a wealthy 18th century merchant. After Uphagen's death in 1802, the house was passed down through several generations of the Uphagen family. The Uphagen House was destroyed during the Soviet advance into Danzig in 1945. The house was rebuilt after World War II. It was finally reopened to visitors in 1998. ==Gallery==
