Malbork:

The castle of Order of Brothers of the German House Saint Mary in Jerusalem, or for short the Teutonic Order, which is situated in Malbork, named by its members: Marienburg (German for Mary’s Castle) is unique on a global scale. There is no one who wouldn't get impressed by its magnitude. There is something for everyone here, regardless of age, gender, interests. Children will be delighted with stories of knights, battles and treasures. Whether you are interested in history, the military, art or culinary you will always find something for yourself. What’s impressed us most is an unusual combination of practicality and refinement of form; it’s a castle from the outside and a palace inside. Monumental, slightly harsh walls contrast with elaborate interior decoration and the craftsmanship of its details. Functional to the core, it will astonish you with the high artistic level of interior spaces.

Highlights:

• Winter Refectory with its system of hot air "floor heating",
• Gdanisko - well-thought-out latrine tower,
• St. Mary’s Church, reflecting ideally the scale of the destruction during World War II.
