From the Market Square there is a magnificent view of the tower of the Teutonic Castle.

The castle in Człuchów was one of the largest defensive complexes erected by the knights of the Teutonic Order. It occupied an area of 3 hectares, and in size it was second only to the seat of the capital of the Order's state - the castle of the Grand Master in Malbork. The castle complex in Człuchów consisted of three outer baileys and the High Castle, each of which, if necessary, could constitute an independent defensive circuit. Communication between parts of the castle was possible through drawbridges built over moats filled with water. Only the moat around the III Outer Castle was dry.

The mighty tower of the High Castle (46 m) testifies to its former splendour, from which you can watch the panorama of Człuchów and the surrounding area. In the years 1826 - 1828, an Evangelical church was built on the foundations of the castle chapel, and the tower was turned into a belfry. In 1844, the top of the tower was changed to a high battlement. For the bell ringer and tourists, an entrance was made at the bottom of the tower and wooden stairs were made.
