Fascinating Medieval Town
Founded in the 13th century by the Teutonic Knights, Toruń stands today as one of Europe’s most splendid examples of a medieval Gothic city. Remarkably preserved, it has maintained its medieval charm virtually unchanged since the Middle Ages. Unlike many Polish cities during World War II, Toruń was spared, allowing its historical landmarks to remain intact.
Toruń offers a unique journey through history, encapsulating the last eight hundred years. From the initial Teutonic settlements and the splendour of the Polish Renaissance, to the tumultuous periods of the 19th and 20th centuries and up to the modern era, the city is a living testament to its rich past.
