World Heritage
Poland
🎧 Listen to Introduction
Toruń has its origins in the Teutonic Knights, who built a castle here in the middle of the 13th century as a base for their conquests and the spread of the gospel of Prussia. Soon it developed into a commercial city as part of the Hanseatic League. In both the Old Town and the New Town, many magnificent public and private buildings from the 14th and 15th centuries, including Copernicus's House, bear witness to Toruń's importance.
