We take you to the former capital of the Teutonic State where you can admire the famous castle of the Teutonic Knights. This huge brick castle on the river is one of the most imposing medieval defensive structures in Europe, put by UNESCO on the World Cultural and Natural Heritage List. The castle is surrounded by belts of defensive walls with gates and towers. The first major phase of the building (from the end of 13th century) was the Assembly Castle, a fortified monastery later known as the Upper Castle. The Middle Castle was built after 1310 and the Palace of the Grand Master was begun in 1382-1399.

Today the castle is the museum. Apart from its fine Gothic interiors and details of design, it contains collection of amber artefacts, works of artistic handicraft, porcelain and faience, Gothic sculptures and historic weapons.
