Olsztynek, Municipality center in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland
Olsztynek stands amid the northern Polish landscape, with Gothic architecture and medieval walls marking its central district against forested surroundings.
The Teutonic Knights established a fortress in 1334, which developed into a settlement that received municipal rights in 1353 from the Bishopric of Warmia.
The Museum of Warmia and Mazury preserves regional artifacts and documents that demonstrate the evolution of local traditions through different historical periods.
The city functions as a transportation hub with major rail and road connections, providing access to the Masurian lake district and neighboring urban centers.
A tire manufacturing facility operates within the city limits, combining industrial production with preservation of medieval architectural elements throughout the urban area.
