Pomnik w samym centrum Gdańska niedaleko Muzeum Bursztynu. Warty obejrzenia.

We were wandering around Old Town and suddenly there he was—seated with that big metal globe behind him, looking like he was mid-thought. The setting is super peaceful with trees and the little canal nearby. It felt more like a quiet tribute than something showy, which I actually loved. We had the whole area to ourselves, so we took our time walking around and snapping a few pics from different angles. Even if you’re not big into astronomy, it just has this calming, thoughtful vibe. Definitely worth a quick stop if you’re nearby.
