The building was constructed in the 17th century by Antoni Van Obberghen in pure Flemish style. The facade decorations were designed by Wilhelm Van Der Meer and Abraham Van Der Block. Decorative elements include the Gdańsk coat of arms and a statue of the Roman goddess Minerva.
The large arsenal was used for its intended purpose until the 19th century. The building was almost destroyed during the bombing of Gdańsk in 1945. Rebuilt in 1965 in supposed 17th-century forms, it now houses the Academy of Fine Arts.

Beautiful example of manierism
The dutches made a very good job on this fa ade. They had got enough of rinascimento so they started to create something less Classic (look for example At the balls of the Lion for example.... Ehm ehm) do you think it is a bit out of the schemes? Yeah. The Gold is wisely uses
