On the highest hill in Grudziądz, in the years 1260-1299, the Teutonic Order erected a fortified castle. Built on a quadrilateral plan with the most important rooms in the southern wing (refectory, chapel) and dormitories (knights' apartments) from the west. In the northern and eastern parts of the castle, utility rooms were built, e.g. kitchen, bakery, brewery and hospital. In the courtyard of the castle, a free-standing defensive tower called Klimek was built, which also served as a prison during peacetime. A 50 m deep well was also dug in the courtyard.
