Gdynia Concert Shell

monuments

The Gdynia Concert Shell is a well-known cultural landmark that was built in the 1950s. Located on Grunwaldzki Square, between the Musical Theatre and the Gdynia Film Centre, near the main pedestrian promenade on Skwer Kościuszki, it offers a unique cultural experience. Designed in the modernist style, its semicircular shape resembles an open seashell. This form not only distinguishes it from the city's architecture but also provides exceptional acoustics, allowing sound to spread throughout the amphitheater without the need for additional amplification.

Since its inception, the concert shell has been a venue for numerous cultural events, including concerts, festivals, and artistic performances, attracting both residents and tourists. Its distinctive design perfectly fits into the modernist city center, while also being a testament to the functionalist style of Gdynia's architecture.
