Unfortunately, there is no trace of this building today. Since this is my hometown, I will allow myself to post some information and a few archival photos.
Before the excavations began, in my childhood, the "kirchacz" (that's what everyone called this place) was a kind of playground for great fun.
In 1974, well-preserved lower parts of a knight's seat from the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries were discovered in this town. The wooden stronghold stood on a hill, in the shape of a rectangular tower about 14-16 m high. The tower was surrounded by a palisade defensive wall and a moat. In the courtyard, leaning against the walls from the inside, there were farm buildings.

During excavations in the years 1974-1977 (Museum in Grudziądz; R. Boguwolski) the remains of a wooden residential and defensive tower were discovered. The tower, with three or four storeys and a horizontal projection of approx. 7.5 x 9.5 m, was built in a post-and-beam construction, with a palisade technique for building external walls and probably a shingle roof. From the north, wooden stairs with 18 steps led to the basement of the building, located in the corridor entrance. The structural skeleton of the building consisted of 24 massive load-bearing posts (with a diameter of 0.4-0.6 m). The external walls were made of halved wooden logs with a diameter of 0.3-0.5 m, adjoining each other in a vertical arrangement, creating a palisade structure. It can be assumed that the residential and defensive tower of the hillfort in Plemięty rose to approx. 14-16 m, including 10-12 m above the level of the courtyard. The tower was secured with a palisade on the perimeter of the courtyard. The existence of this structure was put to an end by fire. The results of archaeological research allowed us to determine the time of use of the tower to the 14th and possibly the beginning of the 15th century. The basis for this chronology was the analysis of an extremely rich inventory of ceramic and metal artefacts obtained from the ground floor of the house, including militaria, and among them unique finds on a European scale - kettle helmets, fragments of a covered folding cuirass, a hook for drawing a crossbow, or a shingle plane (so-called nutownik). However, based on the mention of the Teutonic chronicler Peter of Dusburg about the siege and burning of castrum Clementis by the Yotvingians under the leadership of Skumand in 1277, identified with the tribal stronghold, it can be assumed that the stronghold could have been founded around the mid-13th century, which is also confirmed by part of the collection of ceramic vessels. icimss.edu.pl/custodes/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=422&Itemid=42
