Malbork, the largest brick castle in Europe

At the turn of a bend dur­ing your water­way cruise, you’ll be cap­ti­vat­ed by a mon­u­men­tal vision : the Teu­ton­ic fortress of Marien­bourg. Mal­bork is the home of this gigan­tic edi­fice, the largest brick cas­tle in Europe. Built in the 13th cen­tu­ry, this impos­ing fortress quick­ly became the seat of the Teu­ton­ic Knights. The fortress of Marien­bourg is also the largest Goth­ic fortress in Europe and a must-see site that’s eas­i­ly acces­si­ble with your rental house­boat. On the banks of the Nogat, a delta branch of the Vis­tu­la, you’ll be able to uncov­er all the secrets of the castle’s excit­ing and event­ful history.
