Biskupiec, Medieval city in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland

Located in northern Poland, Biskupiec extends across gentle hills with a central square and Gothic architecture throughout its preserved medieval layout.

The Prince-Bishops of Warmia established Biskupiec in 1395, granting it town privileges according to Kulm law under Bishop Henry III Sorbom's authority.

The Cultural Centre in the Zatorze district maintains Polish traditions through exhibitions, performances, and educational programs about regional heritage.

The town provides numerous accommodations near Freedom Square, with direct access to restaurants serving regional dishes and connections to public transportation.

The first keg beer production facility in Poland operated from Biskupiec's brewery, with the historical buildings remaining as educational landmarks.
