Zantyr, Archaeological site in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

The archaeological site of Zantyr spreads across the confluence of Nogat and Vistula rivers, featuring remains of medieval structures and fortifications.

During the 13th century, Zantyr functioned as a Teutonic Order castle and settlement before its activities transferred to what became Malbork Castle around 1280.

Excavations at Zantyr uncover artifacts that demonstrate the interaction between Prussian, Polish, and Teutonic cultures through pottery, tools, and architectural elements.

Researchers and students can access the site through coordinated visits with local universities and archaeological institutions in the Pomeranian region.

The exact location of the original Zantyr castle remains undetermined, creating an ongoing archaeological mystery that draws researchers to the area.
