The Archdiocese of Gdańsk (Latin: Gedanen(sis)) is a Latin Church ecclesiastical jurisdiction or archdiocese of the Catholic Church in Poland. The diocese's episcopal see is Gdańsk.
According to the church statistics Sunday mass attendance was 38.1% in 2013 making it lower than the Polish average of weekly mass attendance (39.1%).
Its Archcathedral Basilica of The Holy Trinity, Blessed Virgin Mary and St Bernard in Gdańsk is listed as a Historic Monument of Poland.[1]

After World War I and restoration of independent Poland, the city of Gdańsk (Danzig) was not restored to Poland from Germany, but rather turned into a free city according to the Treaty of Versailles. The Catholic congregation west of the Vistula belonged to the Diocese of Chełmno, which was restored to Poland and east of the Vistula to the Diocese of Warmia, which remained part of Weimar Germany in the interbellum. Germans within the administration of the Diocese of Chełmno were replaced by Polish priests and the Polish language was implemented as binding.[2] While about 130,000 people in Danzig were Catholic, only about 10 percent of them were Polish-speaking and the first attempts to reorganize the ecclesiastical allocation were made in spring 1919, when members of the German congregation asked for an affiliation to the Diocese of Warmia.[2]
While these attempts were supported by the German government, the Polish government tried to preserve the current situation. Pope Pius XI decided to establish an Apostolic Administrator of the Free City of Danzig on 24 April 1922, which was directly subordinated to the Pope. In 1925 a concordat between Poland and the Holy See was signed and the Apostolic Administrator was now supposed to be subordinated to the Nuncio of Warsaw, which caused protests among the local populace. Thus the Pope established the exempt Diocese of Danzig on 30 December 1925 and appointed Edward O'Rourke as the first Bishop on 2 January 1926.[2]

2019年、3人の抗議者が、ヘンリク・ヤンコフスキ神父が少女時代のバルバラ・ボロヴィエツカに性的虐待をしていたことが明らかになったことを受け、ヤンコフスキ神父の像を倒した。[ 5 ] [ 6 ]ヤンコフスキ神父は、2004年に少年への性的虐待に関する刑事捜査が取り下げられたこともあり、2005年に聖職を剥奪されていた。[ 6 ]しかし、彼は性的虐待で有罪判決を受けることなく2010年に亡くなった。[ 6 ]また、レフ・ワルシーの個人的な従軍牧師であるフランツィシェク・ツィブラ神父も、在職中に性的虐待行為を行ったとして告発されていたことが認められている。[ 5 ] 2020年8月13日、フランシスコ教皇は、ヤンコフスキとツィブラによる虐待を隠蔽した人物の一人であるグダニスク大司教スワヴォイ・レシェク・グウォジを解任した。 [ 5 ]グロッズはキュブラの葬儀も執り行った。グロッズはちょうど75歳になったばかりで、カトリック司教が辞任を申し出る年齢であったにもかかわらず、教皇が聖職者の誕生日にそのような辞任を受け入れることは極めて異例であるため、この動きは「組織改革」と評された。[ 5 ]
