About us

Sopot is an inspiration… That is why we support both artists and their audiences with our strong, cutting-edge cultural infrastructure, our cultural institutions, and various creative NGOs.In the summer, Sopot hosts numerous festivals and other cultural events: Sopot Film Festiwal, Sopot Classic (classical music festival), Sopot by the Book, or Sopot Non Fiction (dedicated to documentary theatre). There are three theatres in the town: Teatr Boto, Teatr na Plaży, and Scena Kameralna Teatru Wybrzeże. The National Gallery of Art in Sopot is one of the most important galleries in Poland, with its Art Inkubator as a future workplace for artists and a meeting place for the residents of Sopot.The interaction between culture and social issues is the trademark of Sopot as reflected in the initiatives undertaken by the Museum of Sopot, e.g. the Sopocianie project which is designed to document our history and support the Sopot community.

Sopot Public Library was established on 7th December 1946, by National Committee of Sopot. The first branch was located in the old „Polonia” Hotel on Sobieskiego Street 35, with its first director – Klara Złotkowska. In the next ten years our Library consisted of seven branches, with its Headquarters on 20 października 766 Street (at present – Aleja Niepodległości). Nowadays Sopot Library consists of Sopoteka, Miniteka, Koc I Książka (Book and Blanket), Broadway, and three other branches 2, 6 and 8.
