Toruń Castle
Toruń Castle or Thorn Castle is a 13th- or 14th-century castle of the Teutonic Order located in Toruń (Thorn), Poland. The Castle is part of the Medieval Town of Toruń, one of the World Heritage Sites in Poland.〔
==History==
The Toruń Castle was one of the first castles built by the Order in the lands ceded to them by Duke Conrad of Masovia.〔 The construction started in mid 13th century, and continued for about a hundred years.〔 It was the first Teutonic castle in the Chełmno Land.〔 The new town of Toruń grew together with the Teutonic fortifications protecting it. The palace's historic value comes from the fact that it was the base for the Teutonic Knights when they began their first mission to colonize pagan Old Prussians, and subsequently the formation of the Teutonic state. The castle's first known function was as the residence of a Teutonic commander.〔
Little of the castle survives to the present day, as it has been demolished in centuries since, with much destruction occurring during a town rebellion in 1454.〔〔 The city rebelled on 4 February, and few days later the small Teutonic garrison negotiated a surrender; they were allowed to leave the castle and the city. Shortly afterward, on 8 February, the castle was plundered, and than the Toruń City Council decided that it would be demolished to prevent the Teutonic Knights from reoccupying it.〔 This event marked the beginning of the Thirteen Years' War (1454–66).〔
The castle was partially excavated, rebuilt and turned into a historical monument in 1966 during the time of the People's Republic of Poland for the 500th anniversary of the Second Peace of Thorn.〔
