The Góra Dantyszka (German: Winterberg ) is a 98 meter high elevation in Gdansk in Poland . It has two peaks and is located in the Lasy Oliwskie ( Oliva Forest ) in the Oliwa ( Oliva ) district on the edge of the Trójmiejski Krajobrazowy Landscape Park in the Tricity . Nearby are the mountains Głowica ( Dreiherrenspitze , 122 m) and Wiecha ( New View , later Wächterberg , 112 m). The elevations are part of the Baltic ridge , a terminal moraine landscape .
On its eastern foothills are the mansions of the "second" and "third" patrician estate (Polish: Dwór II and Dwór III). On the mountain there is a third courtyard viewing platform from the end of the 18th century, which used to be a lookout point with a view of Gdańsk Bay . The third farm was owned by the merchant Heinrich Floris Schopenhauer (1747-1805), the father of the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) , from 1784 . When Danzig became part of Prussia in 1793 due to the Second Partition of Poland , the Schopenhauer gave up their Danzig possessions and moved to the Free Hanseatic City of Hamburg .
The mountain was given its German name after the honorary citizen of Danzig Leopold von Winter , who was mayor of the city from 1863 to 1890 . In 1949 the mountain got its current name after Johannes Dantiscus ( Danziger , Polish Jan Dantyszek ). He became bishop of the Kulm diocese in 1530 and Prince-Bishop of Warmia in 1538 (until 1548).
In some Polish publications the Góra Dantyszka is entered with the name Zimnica (Polish for Winterberg) and with an incorrect location.
