Uphagen House is a rare surviving example of an 18th-century patrician townhouse on Long Lane, opened as a museum of bourgeois interiors. Built for a wealthy councillor, its rooms are furnished in Rococo and early neoclassical style, from a formal reception hall to a music room, kitchen and private chambers. The arrangement shows how a prosperous Gdańsk family lived, worked and entertained behind the ornate façade. Reconstructed after wartime loss, it reveals the domestic life of the merchant city.
