Bezławki Castle, Gothic castle in Bezławki, Poland.
Bezławki Castle is a rectangular stone fortress with thick walls and defensive features typical of medieval military architecture. The structure contains multiple floors designed for both living quarters and military functions.
Built around 1377 by the Teutonic Knights, this castle served as a military outpost during campaigns in the early 15th century. It was later converted into a church space, marking a major shift in its purpose.
After 1583, the castle transformed into a Protestant church, reflecting the religious changes in the region during the Reformation period.
The site is accessible by road and situated in a rural area away from major cities. Visitors should plan to explore the exterior and approach over unpaved terrain.
Local legends say the castle once held the Holy Grail, brought by Godwin, son of English King Harold II, who fled after the Battle of Hastings.
