Abstract
What remains of Osiek [Hakelwerk], which in the past was an independent borough of the city of Gdansk, is only the name of the street. Relatively little is known about its history and the territory which it occupied, for there are few preserved documents mentioning it. In 1402 the Teutonic Knights exchanged land with the inhabitants of Osiek. In exchange for the territory situated along “nue gasse”, which is now Stolarska street, the inhabitants of Osiek received a square located near the Teutonic tannery and a place to keep boats and dry nets (“Schild”). Additional information about the territory granted to them may be found in a document from 1425. Details included in both documents hardly correspond to the completely altered topography of this part of the city. The area north of Osiek street (Hakelwerk) and east of Panienska street (Jungfergasse) was considered to be designed for settlement. The island of Brabank was to become the now lost “Schild”. The location was first indicated by Gustav Köhler. The results of archeological research conducted in the years 2007 and 2011 between Panieńska street and Osiek allow us to question the hitherto established findings. Near the crossroads of both streets a tannery built at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries was discovered. It was situated at a channel which does not exist any more. Its location indicates that the area designed for settlement is most likely to have been between Panienska street and Browarna street in the vicinity of the now non-existent Podzamcze street (Burggrafen) and Osiek street. The second element of the layout – “schild” – could have been located at the mouth of the Wiadrowniki Channel up to “Stara Radunia” on the western side of the channel.
