Kwidzyn Castle
Kwidzyn Castle, Gothic castle in Kwidzyn, Poland.
Kwidzyn Castle is a medieval red brick fortress in Pomerania with a square courtyard surrounded by corner towers. An integrated cathedral on its eastern side forms part of the unified complex.
The Teutonic Knights built the fortress between 1344 and 1400 as the residence of the Bishop of Pomesania and an administrative center. The tombs of three Grand Masters were later interred within its walls.
The structure shows how the Order combined military strength with religious purpose in a single design. The cathedral on the eastern side remains a dominant feature of the complex.
The fortress now houses a branch of the Malbork Castle Museum with exhibitions about the Lower Vistula region's history. Plan time to walk around the courtyard and explore the connected spaces throughout the complex.
A 56 meter arcade bridge links the main building to a tower called the dansker, a medieval sanitary facility. This covered passage remains among the longest of its kind from the Middle Ages.
