Dąbrówno Castle, Gothic castle ruin in Dąbrówno, Poland

The remains of the castle stand on an isthmus between two lakes, with fragments of brick walls showing the original defensive structure.

The Teutonic Knights initiated the construction of Dąbrówno Castle in 1400, which King Władysław Jagiełło's forces captured and destroyed during the 1410 campaign.

The castle represents the architectural transition from Teutonic military fortification to Polish administrative center through several centuries of regional changes.

Visitors can access the castle ruins via Ostródzka street in Dąbrówno, where information panels detail the structure's medieval layout.

The castle's position between Lake Dąbrowa Wielka and Lake Dąbrowa Mała created a natural defense system that influenced medieval trade routes.
