Away from Nida settlement, on the “Hill of Mother-in-law”, there is the Thomas Mann’s two-storey summer house which does not stand out from the surroundings. The summerhouse was built in 1930. On July 16 of the same year Thomas Mann together with his family moved into that cottage. The writer spent three summers (1930 – 1932) in that summerhouse. While residing there, he was writing “Joseph’s Stories” and his speech entitled “Spiritual Setting of the Writer Nowadays”, which he had to give in Haga. One can view so-called “Italian Scenery” appearing from the dune called “Hill of Mother-in-law”. Thomas Mann described it in the following way: “Scenery of the sea, which makes you imagine you are at the coast of Mediterranean Sea, - the sand enhances this impression. Dinner in the north, mixture of Tony Kreger, so familiar and lovely since the old times”.
