The Royal House of Norway released a statement on Tuesday announcing the Crown Prince’s arrival in Poland as part of royal obligations.
According to the statement, when Crown Prince Haakon arrived in Gdansk, he was escorted by the mayor.
The 51-year-old Mette-Marit, the Crown Prince’s wife, was given a pulmonary fibrosis diagnosis in 2018. When her husband visited Poland, she did not accompany him.
The Solidarity Center, a significant location in Poland’s history and a focal point of the country’s transition from communism to democracy, was visited by the Crown Prince in Gdansk. He also met Lech Walesa, a former president and Nobel winner who spearheaded a movement crucial to the nation’s progress.
