Dar Mlodziezy has belonged to the Gdynia Maritime Academy since she was built in 1982. Her name means "the gift of youth" and she replaces the beautiful frigate Dar Pormoza, which had trained future officers of the merchant and fishing fleets for more than fifty years.
She proved to be a very successful sail training ship and four more sisters were built in the following years, Druzhba, Khersonses, Mir, Nadeshda and Pallada. She has graced the Tall Ships' Races with her presence on a regular basis for some 25 years.
She made her debut in 1982 when she crossed the start line straight after being commissioned. She has undertaken circumnavigations of the globe, including Australia's 200th anniversary in Sydney in 1988.
