Experience the Castle

Very nice visit to the medieval Malbork Castle, Unesco World Heritage Site largely rebuilt after the war, the tour with Audioguide in Italian (included in the ticket) is amazing, it is activated automatically as you move around the various areas of the castle, with further tips on the screen, impossible to go wrong. The tour lasts about three hours, we visited it in early December, the interior rooms well heated despite it being 2 degrees. Interesting exhibition on Ex libris and amber. The only great rudeness on the part of the clerk at the checkout.

A very large castle!

This was an easy train journey from Gdansk. When you come out of the station in Malbork turn right and walk through the town up the hill. Signage is not great. The castle is large and a bit confusing to make your way around to all the rooms. We paid to go up the tower but did not find how to enter. Ask questions. The castle is large and their are many rooms to explore. The narrative is informative. It explains about the summer and winter areas, security and how staff was never allowed in some areas.

Best audio guide

Decided to visit during our stay in Gdańsk. Decided to take the train and walk to castle. Easy to buy tickets for train, they were cheap, train very comfortable and got a free bottle of water. Arrived at Malbork and had been told, easy to find castle. Expected to see it signposted from station which it wasn’t and had to use map on phone. Only a short walk but would have helped with signage. The castle is huge. We took the audio guided tour and have to say it is the best one I have ever done. Just enough information to inform about the castle but not overloaded. “Jacob” spoke at a nice pace and easy to follow. Allowed you to go at your own pace which was great. It takes about 2 hours but also suggested a good time to have a break which was helpful. We were there in April so it that busy which meant we could take our time and see everything. Short walk back and onto the train back to Gdańsk.
