Nowe, Medieval town in Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland.

Located on the Vistula River, Nowe extends across rolling terrain with ancient defensive walls and a network of narrow streets in its center point.

The settlement, founded in 1185 by Duke Sobieslaw I of Pomerania, received its initial name Novo Castro and developed into a strategic fortress by 1282.

The town center features Gothic structures including Saint Matthew Church, while the medieval castle now functions as the primary cultural institution.

Nowe connects to major cities through National Road 91 and the A1 motorway, with regular bus services running to Bydgoszcz and Gdańsk.

The town's position within the ethnocultural region of Kociewie influences its local traditions, language patterns, and regional celebrations throughout the year.
