About

Quick facts: This castle is the largest brick castle complex in the world, spanning over 21 hectares. More than 3 million bricks were used in its construction, creating an impressive and unique sight.

Highlights: The castle's basement houses a collection of original medieval weapons and armor, adding a stunning authentic atmosphere. From the highest tower, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the Baltic Sea and the Nogat River, a breathtaking sight especially at sunset.

Insider tips

  • Wear comfortable shoes because the castle area is large and some paths are cobbled.
  • Have your camera ready at the highest tower for panoramic Baltic Sea photos.
  • Avoid weekends if you want a quieter atmosphere.
  • Skip the souvenir shop at the entrance, just explore the main part of the castle first.
