Kętrzyn Castle, Gothic castle in Kętrzyn, Poland.
Built from red bricks on stone foundations, the three-wing castle measures 31 by 37 meters with three defensive towers along its perimeter walls.
The Teutonic Knights constructed the fortress between 1350 and 1374 to protect their eastern territories from Lithuanian raids in the region.
The Wojciech Kętrzyński Museum inside the castle displays regional artifacts and art collections dating from the 15th to 19th centuries.
Visitors can explore the castle museum from Tuesday to Sunday, with extended hours during summer months from June through September.
During the annual St. Jacob's Medieval Fair, the castle courtyard transforms into a marketplace featuring traditional craft demonstrations and regional products.
