    Hiking

    The Copernicus Canal is a historic waterway dating back to the Middle Ages, which once supplied the city with fresh water and water for mills.

    Today, only short sections remain, particularly visible near the harbor and the water tower.

    A fascinating piece of engineering and urban history, and a peaceful stop on your journey through Frombork.

    A canal bringing fresh water from the Bauda River to the city, built between 1310 and 1472, during the Teutonic Order. Originally, it was almost 6 km long and connected in the nearby port with the waters of the Vistula Lagoon.
