Dybów Castle

The castle is located in the Piaski district of Toruń, on the western side of the Vistula river.

Built by Władysław II Jagiełło during the period between 1424 and 1428, the castle was built near the settlement of Nieszawa (known as OldNieszawa) which was destroyed during the Thirteen Years' War and relocated to its present location Nieszawa.

[1] In the eighteenth century, the castle was owned by the Dębski family, and a distillery was opened.

In 1813, 40 French troops occupying the castle, under the command of Lieutenant Savary, withstood a three-month siege by the Russians.

The castle has survived to this day in the form of ruins, with preserved perimeter walls, and a two-story gate tower and fortifications.
