Reszel, Medieval town in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland
The Gothic Episcopal castle stands on a steep hillside above the Sajna River, featuring a hotel, restaurant, and art gallery within its walls.
The Teutonic Knights conquered the settlement in 1241, and the town received its privileges under Chelmno Law in 1337, marking its official establishment.
The Gothic St Peter's Church, Jesuit complex, and preserved defensive walls showcase the architectural heritage spanning from the 14th to 19th centuries.
Visitors can explore the main square, market area, and surrounding lakes, with numerous accommodations available in both modern buildings and historical structures.
The castle witnessed the trial of Barbara Zdunk in 1811, recorded as one of Europe's final witch trials, ending in her execution.
