Kwidzyn, Medieval town in Powiat kwidzyński, Poland
The urban center of Kwidzyn spreads across the Liwa River valley at 42 meters elevation, featuring Gothic architecture and modern industrial zones.
The Teutonic Knights constructed the initial castle in 1232, establishing the settlement that became a significant administrative center for the Pomesanian diocese.
The Cathedral of Saint John houses the tombs of the Grand Masters of the Teutonic Order and maintains regular religious services for the local community.
International Paper and Jabil manufacturing facilities provide employment opportunities, while the town connects to Gdańsk through regular transportation services.
The castle complex includes a sanitary tower connected to the main building by a suspended bridge spanning 54 meters, the longest of its type in medieval architecture.
