the final part after the holocaust, the hatred of jewish people took on new forms and they still pervasive today. the new face of anti semitism. in 30 minutes on d. w. ah, who, what people have to say matters to us. mm. mm. that's why we listen to their stories reporter every weekend on d w. ah, ah, ah ah,

i'm on my way to pull that to the city of gdansk. these days most people vacationing in europe are avoiding eastern europe because of the war and ukraine. poland borders ukraine, della bruce, and the russian enclave of cleaning brit. meaning it's right next door to war in crisis. that scares tourists. but is it justified? i want to check out a city that is usually overrun in summer, but visitors from germany and scandinavia with today, i want to discover a good dance with you. a port city on the baltic coast in the north of poland. when a good dance has a special meaning, not only for poland, but for the whole of europe. do you want no more?

ah, you can't tell by looking a scenic dance. that is the city marked by fate. what happened to the city changed europe? well, the whole world, but 1st things 1st. i if you love last places, you have to check out the former good zones shipyard. i will take you to a place of world history, the latter day by the seas, no problem and get done. it has its own seaside resort support. ah, i spoke to city tour with sebastian, and i blurt out the harsh reality. just if i take a look around, they are not bad, many tourist is, is poland,

is the tourism in poland affected by the war in ukraine? is that the reason? yes, no. the 1st there is going to is because it's still not like the full season, but yes, you have to remember that we have the war next to our border. so it had to effect for the tories. especially for this, like the bigger groups from the states, film and all the parts of the, of the ward, the individual, please. a comic yes. so the tories are here, but it's not the same. what was what was before? like, remember about the palm. they mean that we have the war? yes. so all of these things, they affected on our local tourism. what do the people see when they're cancelling the tour? do they say the war is too close? it might come over to pull it if they can choose, they will choose another destination. worries. no, any risk. so that's one of the point. the 2nd point, he said that the freight of the imagination there is plenty of the refugees on the streets because not the number said we have almost 4000000 people which came to poland from great tourism authorities. reiterate that traveling. and poland

is just as safe as in western europe, but there are still 60 percent fewer foreign tourists at 90 percent fewer group trips. that's hard because every tourist is needed here. and so the all port of good dance has quite it down. it's lined with cafes at restaurants and normally buzzing with guests in the middle ages. it make you dance, the richest city in europe, die it already 1000 years old. busy and the like the 1st thrice, which is create the 1st settlement here. they did it because of the location. and next to the biggest push river vista. and of course the bought the coast. so that was the perfect location. the port brought a lot of money into the city. he can see that here in this street who leads adobe or long lane. this is where wealthy citizens lift

but look what it says up here. 1953. nothing is as old as it looks. the historic center was destroyed by the germans during the 2nd world war. all these houses are new, reconstructed down to the last detail. only this house here, the open house is original. what to do with the roof in the city? some of the idea say that it's better to leave it as the opener museum for the next generation to show them how the war was cruel. and now the idea was to create the new city of the dice. for example, in let me thought newport district. but finally they decided about reconstructing the older main town saint mary's church also miraculously survived the bombing. it's the largest brick church in europe in front of it is

muddy sca street normally tours hotspot, but today it's deserted. i see ember basically everywhere here. it's very important, right, dies is the copies of humber. and this was also like before, even there was no guys the local stuff in trice, or trading with, with the roman empire, 3000 a year before the christ. so this is the very, very long tradition. and white hamburg, because this is our buddy god. so for example, from the swamps you had the black, amber because of the, a lot of oregon, oregon you would okay. we can do the, we are walk you all the time. so it's time for each subject to get something that looks delicious.

mark was popular during the comments era for the 1st me, but it was open crack in 1948. and this idea of everywhere important very fast. so that was that play to feed the people in that like cheap, tasty food for everybody. you don't even understand what this with and you, you can to the point i want and there will prefer the play for you. ok. all right. we shared a bureau b, stuff, dumplings, national, this appalling lunch nickel that's much bigger. i am ready for our last stop the town hall tower. ok, so we are on the wall with you can see condensed from 70 meters high. it looks like a lego landscape below me. everything small and interconnected to fascinating with. ah, it's a yeah,

i have i well, that's a cool fairy pay pirate ship. a cas self several times a day and had the best of luck and a peninsula close to get done with the city is seamlessly connected to the port which has developed around condensed, over the centuries. it's the biggest port and poland with one of the largest repair yards in the world. the trains are part of the dance could skyline this vote trip is perfect for a little break. with my destination is in sight,

and now i'm on the best of luck to the place with a lot of history. ah, before world gear one, this top latin was a seaside resort. this is where the people of guns could wind in summer, a popular destination. ah, but after the 1st world war, this was no longer such a peaceful place. poland built military depot, and then on september 1st 1939, it happens. the event that changed europe. indeed the entire world. this is where the 1st shots of world war 2 were fired. germany invaded poland. this is the former god house. it has deliberately been pres,

is ruin. $182.00 polish soldiers resisted the german invasion for 7 days. here, their names are immortalized. like best of luck, it isn't just a storage place. it's now also a memorial for the people of poland, vista plus it is a symbol of resistance against nazi germany. and this monument here was erected in honor of the heroes of vista blood war. never again, it says here. and yet in the middle of europe, there has been war since russia attacked ukraine. the, the auto service places,

of course, connected to the 2nd world war. and now war is raging again in europe and right next door in ukraine. are you worried about vacationing here in poland and poor little optima? as i was was over. i thought, let's just say we had originally planned to go a bit further east or got that got cancelled. and so we're thankful to be able to visit a dance in the area on that, but of course the war worries on hold of him last night. we heard a plane flying over our hotel and you have the sense it's coming closer and closer jog. and you can see what's happening on line. what is all online does mumsy to love to vicki deposit when? what do you think we have to do for people to return in europe? now, vito friedman open saw was either mine or it should have been alleged as yes, her lie moran diplomacy. he's talking, he's like only thing that house weapons alone aren't a solution. is hayden talking is the only option. there is no other choice could gibbons under. it's either shooting or talking lid than better to toggle it better to talk. but i think it's really sad like people are losing their family dare

house in lake mit migrating to add a country. i help you stop soon. bad. yeah, thank leg. ah, never country like to ukraine. i also field trip, you know, because you never know what's going to happen. so we all just hold that's going to stop. so and then yeah, i look at these photos and i know that a few 100 kilometers wait wars the reality. i hope you will find the strength to learn from the past. if you want to know more about the time between 1939 and 45, i recommend a visit to the museum of the 2nd world war the futuristic building right near the mood. while the river is a real eye catcher, it was designed to encapsulate the cities past, present, and future, and immersed visitors in the history of world war 2.

the exhibition details hitler's war of aggression. moreover, documents the poles suffering the holocaust and the polish resistance. it serves as a warning for generations to come in 2015, the right wing law and justice party came to power. the party said a new course for the country and further emphasized the heroic roll of polish soldiers. a film with video game graphics, at the end of the exhibition shows the story. the current government prefers to tell me it's a delicate political topic. in the museum of the 2nd world war shows us. there are no easy answers. it's up to us as visitors to take a critical look her

. there aren't many big european cities with beaches. gdansk is one of the lucky ones with its own seaside resort. so, but i want to go there if i be great physical condition and with a lot of time, i could ride along the baltic coast towards germany. well, but not to day blue . many of the tourists who vacation in poland are drawn to the sea. poland, fall to coast is 500 kilometers long. it's one seaside resort after another. support is considered one of the most beautiful looked the grand hotel. it opened in 1926. prominent europeans met here from time to time.
