On the day

Malbork Castle (Zamek w Malborku) is a 13th-century brick fortress in northern Poland, built from 1274 by the Teutonic Order on the east bank of the Nogat river. Originally named Marienburg after the Virgin Mary, it became the Order's headquarters from 1309 and the largest brick castle in the world by land area — roughly 21 hectares of fortified ground across three concentric zones (Low, Middle, and High Castle).

Frequently asked

What's included in the skip-the-line ticket?
Priority entry at the main gate, plus the full castle circuit: High Castle (chapter house, chapel of St Mary), Middle Castle (Grand Master's Palace, Knights' Refectory with its palm-vaulted ceiling, armoury, amber exhibition), and Low Castle outer bailey. English audio guide is included.
How long does a visit take?
3–4 hours for the full audio-guided circuit. The castle is 21 hectares — the biggest by area in the world — so plan for real walking. Add another 45 min for the evening light show if you book the combo tier.
What's the evening light show?
Apr–Sep nightly, 30-minute projection and sound show on the castle walls — 'Road of the Knights', a compressed history of the Teutonic Order and the castle's construction. Polish narration with English subtitles. Best atmosphere after the day crowds clear out. Bundled in our most-popular tier at €38.
Is it a day trip from Gdańsk?
Easy. Direct train Gdańsk Główny → Malbork runs every 30 min, 35–50 min depending on train. The castle is a 15-min walk from Malbork station. Realistic for a full day out with the evening show if you stay for dinner.
