The former Prussian fortress, which was occupied by the Teutonic Knights in 1233, received the city rights during the same year. From 1285 to 1587 Marienwerde (Virgin Mary’s Island), as the Teutons had originally called the settlement, was a seat of the Pomezanian bishopric Diocese. In 1440 there was established the Prussian Union – today the Pomezanian’s cathedral chapter is the most precious historic and architectural treasures of Kwidzyn. The wings of the castle with towers at the corners belonged to the defense system. Main tower today dominates the entire massif of the castle, which was also a bell tower lookout. Attraction of the castle tower is a characteristic tower “dansker” known as gdanisko of 1384. It was set by more than 50 meters from the west wing of the castle and the castle was combined with a long five spanning porches. Today the castle houses the Museum of the Castle. Kwidzyn history, its monuments and picturesque surroundings are enough attractions to visit for even the most demanding tourists. Kwidzyn inhabited by about 40,000 residents and is a thriving center of socio-economic development. The town develops as a paper industry, electronics and food industries. The town offers plenty of accommodations in hotels and guesthouses. The Kwidzyn Cultural Centre and the Sports and Recreation Centre offers year-round attractive offers for local residents and the tourists.
