Radzyń Chełmiński, Medieval city in Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland
Radzyń Chełmiński is a city in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship in northern Poland. The settlement sprawls across rolling terrain with massive Teutonic Knights castle ruins commanding the northern area.
The town emerged when the Teutonic Knights built a fortress in the 13th century that became the region's administrative hub. This fortification shaped the settlement's development for centuries.
The St. Anne parish church stands out with its distinctive red brick Gothic design that defines the town's center. It remains a focal point where locals and visitors naturally gather.
The city is easily reached by bus with regular connections to nearby towns including Grudziądz. The main station sits near the market square in the center, making it convenient to explore on foot.
The castle's main tower stands about 46 meters tall and ranks among the highest medieval structures in the region. This tower creates an unexpected vertical landmark that rises distinctly from the flat surroundings.
