Om
Hurtige fakta: An immense fortress complex spans over 21 hectares, making it the largest brick castle in the world. Its walls are over 5 meters thick in some places, designed for robust medieval defense.
Højdepunkter: The castle’s High Castle houses a stunning Great Refectory with a medieval dining table over 30 meters long, where the Teutonic Knights once feasted. Visitors can witness the deep red bricks glowing warmly under the soft glow of flickering torchlight recreations during special tours.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for uneven cobblestone surfaces and extensive walking.
- Photograph the courtyard at golden hour for the best light on the red bricks.
- Avoid weekends if possible to enjoy less crowded interiors, especially the Great Refectory.
- Skip the usual gift shops and find handcrafted souvenirs sold by local artisans near the entrance.
