Gdańsk Castle
Gdańsk Castle was a large Teutonic Order stronghold in what is now the Old Town of Gdańsk, built from the mid-14th century and taken down in 1454 after a popular uprising. Only small sections of the curtain wall along the Motława and the Swan Tower survive today; the former castle site lies beside the Radunia Canal and Wartka Street.

As it stood in 1396
The shape it held in its prime.
A red‑brick medieval curtain of considerable length running along the Motława shore, built of orange‑red fired bricks with irregular courses and lime mortar, interrupted by stone or brick wall towers (one surviving as the Swan Tower) and a tiled coping along the top; the main High Castle formed a roughly rectangular mass around an inner courtyard with a surrounding cloister; outbuildings and an outer bailey lay between the castle and the river.
