Description

Welcome to Malbork Castle, an extraordinary fortress steeped in history and grandeur!

Upon arriving at Malbork Castle, you'll be transported back in time as you step into a world of knights, kings, and intrigue. Take a guided tour or rent an audio guide to explore the castle's rich history, fascinating legends, and incredible architecture. Learn about the rise and fall of the Teutonic Order, the castle's role in medieval warfare, and the lives of the knights who once inhabited its walls. One of the highlights of Malbork Castle is the Grand Master's Palace, the largest building within the castle complex. Marvel at its ornate interiors, including the Great Refectory with its beautiful ribbed vaults, the Grand Chapter Hall adorned with frescoes, and the opulent private apartments of the Grand Master.

As you explore the castle's courtyards and gardens, you'll be greeted by breathtaking views of its massive fortifications and walls. Take a moment to appreciate the sheer size and scale of this medieval stronghold, which once guarded the lands of the Teutonic Order. Don't miss the chance to witness a thrilling falconry show, where you can see majestic birds of prey in action, just as the knights did centuries ago. The falconry shows are a mesmerizing display of medieval hunting techniques and the bond between man and bird. In addition to its fascinating history and architecture, Malbork Castle also houses various museum exhibitions. Explore the Amber Museum, which showcases exquisite amber artifacts, the Arms and Armor Exhibition, which displays an impressive collection of medieval weapons and armor, and the Archaeological Museum, which presents archaeological finds from the castle's grounds.
