Kwidzyn Castle

Kwidzyn Castle is a large brick Gothic castle in Kwidzyn, northern Poland, built by the Pomesanians in the early 14th century. The fortress is arranged on a square plan with a central courtyard, square corner keeps and a dansker (a latrine bridge) projecting from the walls. Today parts of the north‑western and western wings are used by a branch of the Malbork Castle Museum.

As it stood in 1400

The shape it held in its prime.

Red brick Gothic massing on a roughly square plan, with steep red‑tiled roofs and tall rectangular windows set in deep reveals. Four squat square keeps occupy the corners; a tall, plain square tower rises above the main block. A distinctive dansker projects from the curtain wall, carried on five tall brick arcades spanning a defensive ditch. The castle sits close to a town street and green embankments, approached across grassy banks and trees.
