Mattenbuden
History
Mentioned under this name for the first time in 1379, the name remained unchanged until the war. The origin of the name explains the oldest Danzig arbitrariness: „Czwischen den mattenbuden unde brugken sal nymands fuer haben unde man sal keyne matten binden den in den mattenbuden“.
