Abstrakt
In the late 1920s, the architecture of marine terminals in Western European harbours started to change significantly. It was inspired by both the need to serve large numbers of passengers in a short time, but also the expectations regarding the quality of the facilities from tourists travelling on luxurious ocean liners. It was also a period when Gdynia became an important hub for emigrants travelling from Poland to Americas. The increasing number of passengers in the city resulted in the plans to construct a modern complex of a Marine Station. It was designed by the German Dyckerhoff & Widmann Company with the support of the well known Polish architect Wacław Tomaszewski. The building was opened in December 1933 and provided various facilities for the passengers, as well as a fast and efficient passenger control. The architects used Modernist forms, which were typical of Gdynia of the period, and were seen as a manifestation of Polish modernity and cultural development. The innovative aspect of the Marine Station’s building was also the construction, especially shell vaultings of reinforced concrete. The key visual elements of the interior were patriotic decorations, which manifested the power of the new Polish state.
