New Town on the Vistula River

The castle in Kwidzyn is an impressive Gothic stronghold from the 14th century, the former seat of the Pomesanian chapter. Its massive walls and characteristic sanitary-defense tower, connected to the castle by the longest covered porch in the world, are a symbol of medieval defensive architecture in these areas. The castle was not only a religious and administrative center, but also played an important role in the Polish-Teutonic conflicts and in the Priests' War. Rebuilt and adapted many times over the centuries, today it houses a museum and is one of the most important historical attractions in the region.

The oldest part of the city - on this side of the Wierzyca River, there used to be a farm and a village belonging to Piotr Święca. Shortly after he sold the local lands to the Teutonic Knights, in 1305, under the direction of Theodotus from Florence, they began to mark out the area for the development of a new settlement. In this way, a spatial layout was created with a regular network of streets radiating from the centrally located square market square, which is larger than the Old Town Square in Warsaw.
