The Allenstein Castle was the seat of an administrator of the Warmian cathedral chapter and the main location of one of the three chamber offices that were subordinate to the chapter and, together with the episcopal chamber offices, formed the Bishopric of Warmia, which was granted as secular territory to the bishop and the chapter when the four Prussian dioceses were founded in 1245.

In 1455, Allenstein Castle was taken over by the mercenary captain Knight Georg von Schlieben.[5]
