Bartoszyce, Urban municipality in northern Poland

Located on the Łyna River, Bartoszyce spans across green areas with medieval structures and two ancient stone monuments called Babies in its center.

The Teutonic Knights constructed a strategic castle on the Łyna River around 1240, establishing control over the border between Natangia and Bartia regions.

The annual Borderland trade fairs bring together merchants and visitors since 1994, showcasing regional products and traditional crafts from the area.

The town functions as a gateway to Kaliningrad through the Bezledy border crossing, situated just 15 kilometers from the city center.

Two stone figures over one thousand years old, known as Bartki, stand as ancient Prussian monuments in a park within the town center.
