Burg Draheim, Medieval castle ruins in Stare Drawsko, Poland

Burg Draheim is a medieval castle ruin in Stare Drawsko located on elevated ground between two lakes. The remains display masonry from different construction phases with recognizable defensive structures.

The Templar Order received the land in 1268 from Duke Przemysł II. It later changed hands among the Knights Hospitaller, regional rulers, and Brandenburg-Prussian powers.

The castle served as the seat of local administration and symbolized royal control over the region. It shows how fortifications like this one were essential for governing the surrounding lands.

The ruins are reached by marked trails from the village. Information panels along the structures explain the architectural details and features of the fortification.

The structure stands between two lakes and used their location as natural defense. This water-supported positioning made it a strategic point for controlling the water routes in the area.
