Historic sites in Darłowo: the High Gate, a town hall in former market halls and the Hemptenmacher House of 1604. Three addresses by the square.
A town gate, a town hall and a shipowner's house stand close together near Plac Kościuszki. It is a short walk through the centre of Darłowo for anyone who wants to see what is left of the old town of merchants and sailors.
Brama Wysoka w Darłowie (High Gate) from the 14th century is the only survivor of the four gates of the old walls. It stands about 120 metres north of the main market square on Powstańców Warszawskich Street, on a square plan. It was entered in the register of monuments together with a remnant of the defensive walls in 1955. The gate is privately owned.
Ratusz w Darłowie (Darłowo Town Hall) at Plac Tadeusza Kościuszki 9 occupies former market halls. In 1725 they were raised by one storey and given a Baroque look. St Mary's Church stands next door, and a fountain from 1919 stands by the town hall.
Kamienica Hemptenmacherów w Darłowie (Hemptenmacher House) stands on the corner of Powstańców Warszawskich 51 and Rynkowa, right by Plac Kościuszki. The gable decorated with reliefs bears the date 1604, and the side wall carries a plaque with a cog. It took its name from a family of shipowners who lived here in the 19th century.
Buildings of the old town get a fuller treatment in the article Darłowo: stare miasto i kościół Mariacki. Churches have a separate list, Kościoły i klasztory: Darłowo, and the whole of Darłowo has its own page, Darłowo.
One: the High Gate, also called the Stone or Brick Gate, out of four.
At Plac Tadeusza Kościuszki 9, in former market halls rebuilt in 1725.
It sits on the side wall of the shipowner's house. A cog was a medieval merchant sailing ship, which fits the house's former owners.
