The Cleveland Main Lighthouse (today no longer standing), which served as a model to the Gdańsk lighthouse, was erected in 1871 and was considered to be one of the most beautiful lighthouses of America. But why a twin of a Cleveland lighthouse in Gdańsk? It is an enduring mystery. One hypothesis links it with the visit of the City of Gdańsk delegation to the 1893 World Exposition in Chicago. During the visit the delegation would also have made an excursion to Cleveland, Ohio and, struck by the beauty of the Cleveland lighthouse, decided to have a twin built in Gdańsk. Is that how it happened? No one knows for sure, and it remains a historical puzzle, a challenge for a Sherlock Holmes of architecture... Looking for a shopping centre? Visit Fashion House!
