The fortresses of the Teutonic Order are a separate page in the history of the Polish lands - austere, monumental and fascinating. Built of brick, with characteristic Gothic precision, Teutonic castles were intended not only to protect the borders, but also to symbolise the authority and discipline of the Order. Malbork - the largest brick castle in the world - is the pearl of this architecture, but equally interesting are smaller fortresses, such as the castle in Gniew, Radzyń Chełmiński or Kwidzyń. We have described each castle with attention to historical sources and construction details, so that you can learn not only about their function and fate, but also about the spirit of the era that still hovers over the walls. This is a story of ambition, power and conflict - and at the same time of craftsmanship that has survived the centuries.
The era of castles, knights and great battles has not faded into oblivion - it is still alive in films and games, which transport us into the world of the past centuries with extraordinary intensity. Monumental cinema productions allow us to feel the atmosphere of knightly expeditions, court intrigues and fortress sieges, while computer games offer us the opportunity to experience history in person - to duel, build castles or command armies. It is here, at the boundary between history and imagination, that the Middle Ages regains its lustre, becoming not only an object of fascination, but also an active experience. For any lover of the era, this is the space where legend meets the modern form of storytelling.
