Kunstgasse

History

The first two of the above changes refer to the section between Faulgraben and Böttchergasse. The remaining four refer to the section between Böttchergasse and Baumgartsche Gasse. The name Kumstgasse ended in 1899. Admirable is the ability of the old Danzigers to turn even mundane cabbage (Kumst) in a lane into high art (Kunst) in the same lane.
