However, on this special night, it is well worth dropping by the Amber Museum to explore the historical exhibition presenting the history of the Foregate Complex and to view contemporary amber jewellery by the well-known S&amp;A brand in the adjacent Upland Gate. This is only a small part of the proposals we have prepared with our partners,\u201d invites Renata Adamowicz, custodian of the Amber Museum. <\/p>\n<p> What else will be able to be seen between 7 pm and 1 am on Targ W\u0119glowy in Gda\u0144sk? At 7.30 pm, Sylwester Malucha will talk about his experiences in amber fishing and will present a lump of amber that he fished out of the sea in 2004 in Sobieszewo. \u201eThis nugget weighs about 1 kg and was found during a storm. Mr Sylwester handed it over as a deposit to the Amber Museum, where it has been on display for almost 10 years. It is not often that one manages to find a natural nugget of this size, nor is it often that there is an opportunity to listen to the fascinating stories of a man who has been fishing for amber for many years,\u201d encourages the curator to participate in the meeting. An hour and a half later, at 9 pm, Dr Aleksandra Pud\u0142o will deliver a lecture <i>The Other Side of the Barbican Complex Mysteries<\/i>, about the new historical exhibition which she is co-curating. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> Additional attractions will be waiting for visitors in the courtyard of the Amber Museum. There, the S&amp;A Amber Manufacture Gallery has prepared a demonstration of amber processing techniques, and a pair of amber mimes will present exceptional examples of the brand's modern and unique amber jewellery. This company is also the sponsor of the main prize \u2013 amber jewellery \u2013 in the special lottery. To take part, all you need to do is collect three stamps on your admission ticket: from the Amber Museum ticket office, the Upland Gate, and the Amber Manufacture Gallery. The draw \u2013 the highlight of the event \u2013 will take place at midnight in the square between the Amber Museum and the Upland Gate. In addition, everyone who collects all three stamps will receive an amber gift at the Upland Gate.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2225_2-0d8.jpg\" alt=\"2225 2\" class=\"wp-image-16900\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p> But that is not the only reason to visit the High Gate, which houses the Pomeranian Tourist Information Centre. In the cellars, which are normally inaccessible, it will be possible to admire a photographic exhibition <i>Gda\u0144sk through an amber lens<\/i>. The photographs were taken by well-known Gda\u0144sk photographers using a camera with an amber lens constructed by Marek Mazur. <\/p>\n<p> In the courtyard of the Amber Museum, Garnizon Gda\u0144sk will stage a 17th-century legend associated with this place about the executioner's daughter. Meanwhile, the square between the Museum and the High Gate will be the venue for drills by the 18th-century Gda\u0144sk Civic Company, and at the High Gate visitors will be welcomed by 19th-century guards issuing passes granting entry.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>European Night of Museums<\/strong><br \/><strong> 17 May 2014, 7 pm \u2013 1 am; last entry at 0:30. &nbsp;<\/strong><br \/><strong> ticket price: \u00a31. <\/strong><br \/><strong> On that day the Amber Museum is open from 10:00 to 16:00 (admission tickets apply according to the price list)<\/strong><br \/><strong> The partners of this year's Museum Night at the Gda\u0144sk Amber Museum are: the Pomeranian Tourist Information Centre, the S&amp;A Amber Manufactory Gallery, and Garnizon Gda\u0144sk.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An exhibition revealing the historical secrets of the Foregate Complex, a demonstration of ancient amber processing techniques, a presentation of unique contemporary jewellery adorned with amber, and a prize draw \u2013 these are just some of the attractions prepared for Museum Night by the Amber Museum. &nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":16899,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"slim_seo":{"title":"Noc Muze\u00f3w 2014 w Muzeum Bursztynu - Amber Portal","description":"An exhibition revealing the historical secrets of the Foregate Complex, a demonstration of ancient amber-working techniques, and a presentation of unique contemporary adorned jewellery"},"_slim_seo_primary_term_category":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_post_tag":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_sekcja":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"sekcja":[],"class_list":["post-16901","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-informacje"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16901","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16901"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16901\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16899"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16901"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16901"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16901"},{"taxonomy":"sekcja","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sekcja?post=16901"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
