Schloss Tilsit, Medieval castle ruin in Sovetsk, Russia
The stone walls and remaining towers of Schloss Tilsit stand on a strategic position overlooking the surrounding landscape of Kaliningrad Oblast.
The Teutonic Knights constructed Schloss Tilsit in 1385 as a fortress to strengthen their military presence in the eastern regions of Prussia.
The architectural elements of Schloss Tilsit demonstrate the military engineering practices of medieval German fortification builders in Eastern Europe.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins by following Bazarnaya Street in Sovetsk, with regular bus services connecting to the nearby town center.
The castle holds both German and Russian historical designations, reflecting the complex territorial changes that occurred in this border region over centuries.
