General presentation
Malbork
City dominated by the immense Teutonic brick castle, one of the great medieval monuments of Northern Europe.
Malbork Castle, Nogat and Castle Museum give the most telling landmarks of Malbork. Together, they form a destination where urban life, heritage and riverscapes meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 1 to 2 days, it is better to balance the visits and the travel times. Also to be anticipated: very centered on the castle and influence in summer. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Castle
Château de Malbork
The castle of Malbork is a mass of brick on the edge of the Nogat, ancient capital of the Teutonic order. Courses, bridges, vaulted rooms and ramparts make up a long and very physical visit, where medieval architecture is discovered in successive layers.
Town or village
Nogat
The Nogat loin Malbork and offers the best retreat on the red walls of the Teutonic castle. From the banks or a boat, towers and roofs are better off than inside the enclosure, especially when the light drops on the river.
Museum
Musée du château
The museum of the castle of Malbork gives content to the immense spaces of the fortress, with amber collections, weapons, sculptures and objects related to the Teutonic order. The vaulted rooms and exhibitions help to understand the political, religious and material life of an extraordinary complex.
