Teutonic castle in Nidzica, Gothic castle in Nidzica, Poland

Built with red bricks on a stone foundation, this defensive fortress features inner and outer defensive galleries, high Gothic windows, and two prominent towers.

Construction of the castle began in 1398 under the Teutonic Order, with completion of the main western wing in 1405 and full completion in 1409.

The castle contains Gothic frescoes from the early 15th century, including a wall painting in the refectory depicting Saint Veronica among angels.

The castle houses the Museum of Nidzica Region, a cultural center, a restaurant, a hotel, and a public library with regular exhibitions and events.

The eastern wing residential chambers were accessible only through the tower stairs at the southeastern corner, creating an additional layer of defense.
