Hiking
The ruins of the 14th-century castle of the Warmian Cathedral Chapter feature impressive remains of walls and ancient vaults. Nicolaus Copernicus visited here several times – a worthwhile stop for history buffs and photography enthusiasts.
The ruins are situated on a hill overlooking the river and can easily be incorporated into a city walk or bike ride through Pieniężno.
