Grudziądz, Historic city in northern Kuyavian-Pomeranian region, Poland

Located on the Vistula River, Grudziądz features medieval granaries stretching along the riverbank, forming a distinctive defensive line visible from distant points.

Founded in 1065 and granted city rights in 1291 under Teutonic Knights rule, Grudziądz later joined the Prussian Confederation in 1440 against their authority.

The Market Square contains rebuilt townhouses surrounding a central gathering space where residents participate in local festivals and community events throughout the year.

The city connects to major Polish destinations through regular train services from Torun and Bydgoszcz, with multiple daily departures from both cities.

Fourteen medieval granaries stand as National Historic Monuments, reaching several stories high and featuring thick walls that protected grain storage from river floods.
