Gdynia is a young city, it was built on the site of a small fishing village after the end of the First World War. It was then that Poland got access to the sea, then the construction of a sea port began in Gdynia. The first naval ship entered the port in 1923. The port became the most important city-forming factor, and by 1926 the population of Gdynia had grown from 1000 to 100 000.
During the Second World War, the city was captured by Hitler's troops and almost completely destroyed, after the war the Poles restored it literally from the ruins. Today Gdynia is one of the largest and, perhaps most modern, equipped ports in the Baltic.
