Felt like I stepped into a chilling chapter of history at a former Soviet Union nuclear missile site in Lithuania. Hidden deep in the forest, this once top-secret base housed missiles aimed at the West during the Cold War. Walking past the massive steel doors, fortified bunkers, and the eerie launch silos felt like stepping into a spy novel - except it was all real. It was a unique way to experience the tension, secrecy, and high stakes of the Cold War, standing right where world-changing decisions could have been made. An unforgettable blend of history, engineering, and the quiet reminder of how close humanity once came to the brink.

What an amazing place. Just fascinating. We had an audio guide which gave great explanations of the main points of interest. This is a subject we are really interested in so we spent around 3.5 hours in the museum. There is a huge amount of information to take in, if you are interested. Just being in the facility is incredible when you think of all the tensions and decisions that were taken during those years. The film at the end and the "red button" is very powerful. From a practical perspective if this a subject that interests you then leave plenty of time for your visit and ensure you wear warm clothes, it is freezing down there even with 21 degrees outside! An amazing place, highly recommended.

Hidden deep in the forests of the Žemaitija National Park lies a former Soviet underground nuclear missile base. The base was built in 1960 in the utmost secrecy and for a long time four R-12 Dvina nuclear missiles (NATO name: SS-4 Sandal) were stationed there. With a range of 3,000 km, almost any target in the whole of Europe could be destroyed from here. Only once, during the Prague Spring of 1968, was the missile base on high alert, with the domes open and at most waiting for a launch order. In 1978, the (already outdated) base was discovered by the American secret service and soon every missile and soldier had disappeared from the Žemaitija forests. Today it houses the Cold War Museum, a fascinating and educational museum whose most impressive feature are the 30-meter deep missile silos. Highly recommended!

Truly impressive and thought-provoking. These are the very locations that once instilled fear in the West during the Cold War — hidden deep in the forests, armed with nuclear-capable rocket silos pointed toward Europe. Walking freely through these underground chambers and control rooms is surreal. Hard to imagine that not long ago, this place was part of a global standoff.

Impressive museum where you learn from the past that helps to explain our present geopolitical issues. The children liked it and the site is giving you an amazing grasp of the cold war. The use of the audioguide is highly recommended.

Very unique and peculiar museum, there are free tours for visitors. However, if you want to learn more, I'd suggest just going by yourself and reading the information at the museum at your own pace.

Very cool to see the missile silos and underground base. Information is also in English but the quality of the translation isn’t great and it left me with many questions. Also the route through the ten chambers is confusing despite instructions to “follow the white line”. Better take a picture of the layout when you begin .

Crossing by land route from Lithuania into the Russian exclave Kaliningrad (Königsberg) this former Prussian border gate in the East of the German Empire ("Reichsgrenze") is an outstanding piece of historic heritage. Before 1945 one had to cross eastwards in order to get into Russia. Since 1991, the collapse of the Soviet Union, travelers have to cross westwards in order to visit Russia

Nice bridge, I like to pass it quick, but sometimes have to wait till Russian border guard 💂 make their work. Once spent 8 hours in the car on the bridge. FFS.

The bridge over Nemunas river, border between EU and abroad, connecting Lithuania to Russia, with interesting towers on the Russian side.

There's a border Russia-Lithuania. So you have to stay for 5 hours to cross the border

nice bridge gates but next not so nice

Nice border with a beautiful scenery!

Very nice place on the lake

Some cages were empty, seemed too small or looked like they had way too many animals. But other than that, lots of tigers, lions and birds. Most were sleeping, but could still see lots of creatures. Can also pet, play with, or feed baby tigers near the entrance for an additional fee.

Really interesting experience. Lot of Tigers, Lions and Peacocks. You can buy some bread at the gate to feed some animals. And by extra fee it was possible to play 3 month old Tiger pups. Place looks tired or out dated but most of animals are closer than in other zoo parks. Funny feeling was to see how Tiger plays and eats the dinner.

The worst zoo I have ever visited in my life… It’s totally wrong to see wild animals in such a conditions. Cages for animals are quite small ,dirty, disgusting and animals seems depressed… It’s not zoo, but jail and you shouldn’t bring your kids here. P.S. If you are here just for pictures even those won’t be beautiful as the zoo is disgusting.

This is not a zoo - it's some medieval menagerie. Keeping animals in such conditions is unethical and simply cruel. Breeding them - even more. Just don't go there.

An interesting experience. It would be good to build more spacious enclosures for the animals. There were an incredible amount of tigers, it was a bit surprising. There were also many other felines.The cages felt a little wobbly. In some places panthers were walking in a cage directly above us. Safety was a bit of a concern, especially with small children, because it would be possible for a small child to put his hand in the cage. The tiger cubs were incredibly cute. This is really not small, even though the name suggests so.

Everything looks like in other cements. If you read them then you are prepared. Cash only, don't use wc. Loved baby tigers & lions. For additional 15 eur you can pet them for 10 min.

Absolutely depressing place. The living conditions of the animals were terrible. I have never seen zoo animals run to a human that i saw on this zoo. The animals were completely stressed and hungry. Im also in tears right now when i think about these poor animals. Look at these camels in the picture. Their humps were completely emty and they were so thin. Thats not ok.

One of da best water towers I ever seen my life (amongst 40&more). The view from the top is worth climbing up. Yet, turning such a glossy fabulous tower into a museum of cats is not that nice idea idk. The elevator is super tiny tbh. The cashier is placed inappropriately. Everyone can get inside for free by staircase and even the elevator, avoiding the tickets purchase. The hotel close to the tower ruins the view of the tower itself.

View from the top is nice. The collection inside does not worth it. Also elevator is too small and the first floor is always too crowded (tickets are sold along with the souvenirs, and there is very little space there)

Many interesting and adorable cat figurines. However the entrance via going to the 6th floor, and then being told to wait for the same elevator to go down one floor is confusing and results in waiting line.

Actually, few nice artworks, other is trash.

Perfect plac and must-see for cat lovers

Interesting place for children and for those who are fond of cats.

Must-see. Collection is so sweet.

Beautiful area and building but the museum itself is average. Some interesting pieces but a lot of similar things and basically nothing in English.. so a wiki page will be more interesting to learn.

Nice place and the museum has many informations to show. There are shops as well to buy amber stones. I enjoyed to read the history behind the making of the stone. Worth to visit.

We did not get a chance to go in due to lack of time, but the surrounding area is great and so are the shops. If the inside is anywhere near its exterior, I'm sure it deserves a five star rating.

Touch mysterious and traditional culture and history of Kaliningrad. If you have heard of the mystery of the amber room that missed during warld war 2, you would definitely be moved, because there is the exhibition of the room that restorated. If course, you can learn the history of amber and how to make amber things in Russia. Additionally, there is the exhibition of amber art such as pictures made with amber. There is a souvenir shop that you can buy amber and with reasonable prices!

Amazing experience. My knowledge of Amber grew by 50000%. Beautiful pieces to look at as well as nice souvenirs to be bought.

Before I came to Kaliningrad I had no idea that such a huge percentage of worlds amber derived from this region. It's crazy to think about 300 million years how a unique set of circumstances led to it. This gives a story of the region and a ton of amber displays as well.

I was very happy to be here. But he needs the vaccine QR code, I have the vaccination certificate, they won't admit it and won't let us in. This vaccine certificate is available in many places, and this is the first time that the validity of the vaccine certificate has been denied. a terrible day.

Dedicated to the Virgin Mary and St. Adalbert of Prague, it was built as the see of the Prince-Bishops of Samland in the 14th century. Upon the establishment of the secular Duchy of Prussia, it became the Lutheran Albertina University church in 1544. The spire and roof of the cathedral burnt down after two RAF bombing raids in late August 1944. Kaliningrad was to be rebuilt as a model town on the remains of Königsberg, with no reminders of its German past left standing. The ruins of the castle were periodically dynamited over the next several years, with the last remnants destroyed in 1968 on Leonid Brezhnev's personal orders. The ruins of the nearby Königsberg Cathedral, which included the tomb of Immanuel Kant, were left standing, and, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, were rebuilt and restored in the late 1990s and early years of the 21st century.

Amazing place to check out and kaliningrad itself it has a lot of history, and I would definitely recommend going to check it out. Here are a few photo I took

I had the opportunity to see the beautiful cathedral both from the outside and inside. I also attended a concert held inside. The interior is very well maintained and truly impressive. We took a memorable wedding photo in front of the cathedral.

Beautiful cathedral was built in 14th century. Doest function as an regular cathedral nowadays. It's is a museum. To get in you need to buy a ticket. There is also possibility to listen to organ music there.

Another place I did not have the pleasure of experiencing its interior. It is worth the time to walk to it and enjoy the vendors and views of the pond and park.

We enjoyed organ concert. Mozart sounded so wonderful. I am very impressed

The catjedral hosts now the musem of Emmanuel Kant and organ concerts. It si more interesting to watch here outsode than inside. Afterall the cathedral was bombed djrong the ww2 and for a long time it was a ruin. Worth for a visit.

Loved by local people but few exhibitions because of renovation. If you are expected to watch a lot of kinds of fishes, you would definitely feed disappointed, however, the exhibition of the whale is absolutely great!! There are a several tickets depend on what you want to watch, so you might feel confused, but you can ask the staff in the ticket office. I recommend you to check the Instagram account of this museum, because their posts seems very lovely.

Externally it looks spectacular but unfortunately it's incomplete inside. We'll just have to wait in anticipation for the full experience

A big territory with a lot of attraction sites including a submarine, a research vessel, a water plane, coral and fish aquariums, all sorts of marine mines, anchors, compasses etc. To visit every attraction you need to pay separately. Great for kids.

Being in Kaliningrad you have to visit this place. But not all attractions are worth to see for foreign guests. For sure tou have to buy tickets for museum on the ship and submarine. Before you buy the tickets for other attraxtions, check what this is about, because you can be dissapointed and bored. I do not recommend aquariums. They are small and not so attractive. And in my opinion they are to small for all those fishes. But still you should come here and see those great things.

It is very interesting place.As a seafarer (Captain) it is very attractive place for me.Not only to get fun it gives lots of knowledge.Life in the submarine is adventure.I love this place.

Impressive and highly recommended to visit. Very interesting excursions, different places like submarine, few buildings, ship.

Great place with interesting explanationx about hydrosratic preasure, lots of types of ships, submarine, marine weapons...

A very large zoo with excellent organization, amazing views, and an impeccably clean environment. Every animal we visited had detailed information provided about its life, eating habits, and more.

One of the Best zoo ever! A lot of activities, food spots, Children grounds etc. No. 1 place to visit in the city! Try 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. To visit because of animals activity hours.

Very beautiful zoo!!! There's good food, ice cream, clean and neat bathrooms, wonderful trees, fountain, bridge and walkways. There's a lot of animals to see and keep you walking all over. It's a whole day plan or the park you would love to go for a walk. Bus stop is convenient. There's no parking, but there's several busses stopping right in front of the entrance. So any bus can take you to the zoo. That's amazing! The restaurant in front of the park connects to the inside green foliage of the park. At this restaurant, there's this beautiful deck you can seat and enjoy the fresh air. It's a perfect place for everyone! I loved it! My favorite animal, my daughter's love, the giraffe. They are right there in front of you and get very close at you. Just beautiful! Also, at the entrance there's a racoons house(it's paradise). I would be a racoon, that's where I would like to live. This keeps your kids entertained on your way in and out. By the way, there's free wifi.

Very interesting! Giraffe is so friendly, as well as bears and even hippo! Definitely must-see place.

At this place cashier was one of the kindest people who works with people in Kaliningrad. But about the whole zoo, they are trying to do something and building new volleys and its not going so fast as customers would like. Also the price is pretty cheap. Overall, I am satisfied with the tour.

If you want see soviet zoo park it's good place for you. Animals old and place old and dirty.

Oh, I adore this place. A lot of animals, interesting facts about them and always improving equipment and infrastructure. Ticket price isn't high and there are some discounts for children, students, groups etc. And they have a good snacks to eat while walking.)

You can't even imagine how difficult and unbelievable is to live and work in the submarine. Go and discover world of small spaces under the water. How they work, sleep, fight and go to the restroom. Take a walk from top to end and learn how difficult is to maintain it working. Wonderful experience!

This was a cool place to visit. For decades a submarine used by Soviet Union and Russia. It's part of bigger collections of boat at Museums of Oceans. It is 300 rubles to get into boat. It is really striking just how cramped and claustrophobic it is. The displays are in Russian but still got a good sense of how it felt in the vehicle.

Greatly preserved and renovated Soviet / Russian Federation Navy attack submarine constructed in 1960s and being in service until recent years.

Amazing experience to visit the real boat! An audio guide was helpfull as it was available in a number of languages - English, Russian, Lithuanian, etc.

It's really cool in there and I think it's the best place you can go in that museum

Unique opportunity to visit military submarine. Very interesting especially if you have never seen something like this before.

Brilliant experience into Russian Naval history. Would recommend it to anyone who has the slightest interest in Naval history.

Beautyful place with a lot of plants around, so if you want to hide and observe everything, you can try)

Very beautiful and elegant creater. The whole street is beautiful and elegant

Very beautiful building! Great for tourist.

The symbol of the town.

Nice place for taking photos

Strange place ..food not so good 😐

I like german architecture <3

Wonderful

Gorgeous place with fresh air 💖

Good for small children

Superb!

(Translated by Google) Large clean beach. I usually go to Zelenogradsk, where it is narrower and the sand is not so clean. And here it’s pure freedom. The water is a little cleaner, there is less Tina. There are a lot of people, but in such space it’s not noticeable. The beach is large and free. The entrance to the water is a little rocky and the depth begins after 50 meters. So you can comfortably enter the water with your child Parking 500 meters away is free and you can even find a space. Many cafes and restaurants nearby. There are 2 cafes on the beach itself, but I haven’t tried them. I recommend the Dacha restaurant and a coffee shop, I don’t remember the name. (Original) Большой чистый пляж. Обычно бываю в Зеленоградске, там он более узкий и песок не такой чистый. А тут прям раздолье. Вода чуть чище, Тины меньше. Народу много, но на таком просторе - не заметно. Пляж большой, бесплатный. Вход в воду немного каменистый и глубина начинается метров через 50. Так что с ребёнком можно комфортно заходить в воду В 500 метрах парковка - бесплатная и даже можно найти место. Много кафе, ресторанов неподалеку. На самом пляже 2 кафэшки, но не пробовал. Советую - ресторан «Дача» и кофейню, название не помню.

(Translated by Google) Saturday, early lunch, air temperature plus 25. There are sooooo many people on the beach. You can't push your way by the water. (Original) Суббота, ранний обед, температура воздуха плюс 25. Людей на пляже ооочччень много. Не протолкнуться у воды.

(Translated by Google) Amazing. That's right. We’ve been to many places, but our native Baltic became a complete revelation. Not crowded and very clean. The direct opposite of southern Russian beaches. Convenient approaches, wooden decks along the entire beach for walking. Cozy cafes with a good menu. Clean fine sand and convenient entry into the sea. And of course, not the real beauty of the sunsets... (Original) Потрясающе. Именно так. Много где были, но родная Балтика стала полнейшим откровением. Немноголюдно и очень чисто. Прямая противоположность южным российским пляжам. Удобные подходы, деревянные настилы вдоль всего пляжа для пеших прогулок. Уютные кафе с хорошим меню. Чистый мелкий песок и удобные заходы в море. И конечно, не реальной красоты закаты...

We could only visit the museum and the small tower. The tower has nothing to with Copernicus - it's just a rearrangement of how we think people where living back then. The museum has an interesting retrospective on cartography but nothing is mind-blowing.

I can't say that it was breathtaking. There were some cool exhibits and Copernicus's life was explained in detail in historical context. What I saw was interesting but I expected more. However, it was worth the time. Point of interest: Mondays are free- entrance days.

Quite comprehensive museum focused on Copernicus. A bit traditional exhibitions, not that engaging, but interesting nonetheless, especially the first floor. The ground floor has a curious exhibit of coins/medals and paintings of Copernicus. An odd way to start the visit.

Historical place and not overcrowded. In the cathedral you have Copernicus grave. In the castle itself you have planetarium. When you have a walk around the castle at some points you have really nice view on a lagoon.

It's neat, however everything is in polish, I had to use the picture translator. The viewing tower was my favourite part. The view is expectucar, very inexpensive too.

Very interesting place but difficult to find entrance to. There is no signs on streets directing to this museum. As we were told, this area belongs to cathedral hence no other signs. Is he still considered a heretic by the church?? Shame, because if not for Mikołaj Kopernik no one would ever heard about Frombork.

What a missed opportunity. I will buy the Museum directory a Translation Software so that the non polish speaking visitor isnt stumbling thru the Displays with a Copy of Microsoft translate. Layout and content 5, Presentation 1 And why No Combi or Family Tickets!!!

(Translated by Google) Descent to the beach along a pleasant path - if you enter the path from the lighthouse, the descent is practically in a straight line. I recommend immediately heading to the right side - the beach is starting to be covered with tufts of grass, which adds charm and a substitute for a wild beach. Clean nice sand. in front of the promenade to the beach, there is a free parking lot in the forest, and a paid parking lot next to it. (Original) Zejście na plażę przyjemną ścieżką jeżeli wchodzicie drogą od latarni to jest to zejście praktycznie w prostej linii. Polecam od razu kierować się na prawa stronę plażę zaczynają porastać kępy trafy co dodaje uroku i namiastkę dzikiej plaży. Czysty ładny piasek. przed deptakiem na plaże parking bezpłatny w lesie, a obok parking płatny.

(Translated by Google) Wide beach with amenities, sand and water are excellent (Original) Широкий пляж с удобствами, песок и вода отличные

(Translated by Google) Very wide beach. (Original) Bardzo szeroka plaża.

(Translated by Google) The beach is narrow, but it doesn't bother me that much because there is enough space. Just walk a bit to the west/east of the descent and you will be able to spot a spot close to the water. It's just a pity that there is no piece of footbridge/wooden walkway along the beach (dunes). Krynica is strongly geared towards families with children, but it is difficult to walk on the sand with a stroller. Either way, that's no reason to subtract stars. It's ok. P.S. specials PLN 8 per cup, others PLN 9 ;) (Original) Plaża wąska, ale to w sumie nie przeszkadza aż tak bardzo, bo miejsca jest wystarczająco. Wystarczy przejść nieco na zachód/wschód od zejścia i da rade wyhaczyć miejscówkę blisko wody. Szkoda tylko, że nie ma kawałka kładki/drewnianego chodnika wzdłuż plaży (wydm). Krynica jest mocno nastawiona na rodziny z dziećmi, ale wózkiem to jednak słabo po piasku. Tak czy siak, to nie powód żeby odejmować gwiazdki. Jest ok. P.s. specjal po 8zł za kubek, inne po 9 ;)

(Translated by Google) Sand and cold water but a wide beach (Original) Piasek i zimna woda ale szeroka plaża

(Translated by Google) Very nice place. Nice beach. Parking nearby. (Original) Bardzo przyjemne miejsce.Ładna plaża.Blisko parking.

Fantastic boat trip - fantastic technical masterpiece. Definitely worth going there

Wow...

Great adventure!! Must see :)

Very interesting and nice.

Super!

St. Nicholas Cathedral is a remarkable piece of history and architecture, standing tall as a symbol of the city's heritage. The cathedral's impressive design and serene ambience make it a must-visit spot for anyone exploring Elblag. In the past, visitors had the unique opportunity to climb the church fower for breathtaking views of the city. Though this is no longer available, the cathedral still offers a deeply enriching experience through its beautiful interiors and tranquil surroundings. Its historical significance and stunning presence remain unforgettable. Highly recommended for history lovers and admirers of sacred architecture.

Nice view from tower of church. Ticket price- 10pln. You have to climb up the spiral stairs to get to the top.

This is a must see, the architecture is one of a kind, if you are able to climb the steps up to the top of the spire, the view is breathtaking. When the bells ring, even at 6.30 in the morning, the sound is so deep and meaningful.

This is really old, 13th-century gothic church, located in the centre of the city market. Damaged several times, especially in the 18th century (fire) and during World War II. Because of the tower, it is one of the highest churches in Poland (about 97 metres). Really great landmark, hard to oversight. Unfortunately, I cannot see anything special in this brick building. It is just an old, high church.

Beautiful view

Supreme views from the top but be prepared for a back breaking walk up the windy staircase!

Amazing church. Please visit. It's in the middle of old town so can spend some time with other attractions as well.

Very sobering experience. The only downfall was that half the exhibits weren't in English . If you're into your history and wish to understand more of how the brutal nazi regime treated these people it's worth a visit .

Free entrance..close at 6pm sharp..lock bus tour people out of bathrooms.. need port a john outside in parking area .for visitor.. tough place to visit.. sad history ! But ! U decide ! Donations on pay by card or cash box

Emotional experience. Absolute a must see place if interested in the history of WWII and Gdansk. Some of the exhibits weren't in English, hence to "only" 4 stars.

Strange to give a concentration camp a 5 star but it is a place to visit and reflect on what humans can do to one another if society breaks down. We shouldn't forget them.

It stands as a grim reminder of what humans are capable of, given the right circumstances. Really worth a visit, even if you're not that into history.

Great place for learning more about the topic. Too bad not all the information is in English too. The Kino was also closed without a heads-up.

Great museum presenting very sad part of the history. It's free of charge, but they don't have audio guides, which would be great addition to the experience, however there are plenty of writen information near every part of previous concentration camp.

I recently visited the Dinosaur Park and it was a huge disappointment. The park is old and rundown, and the extra charges for the carousel were just ridiculous. The overall experience was far from enjoyable, and the cost of admission was not justified by the quality of the park. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun day out.

You pay 84zl and everything inside is extra pay. Such a steal. Not so much fun for 2-3 years old. The best fun he had on the playground. But lets be honest, there are similar playgrounds around the city not 1h drive away.

Lovely place to spend good time with family and friends. They have dinosaur working models,5d cinema,game zone, bouncy house for kids, slide and swing play area,adventure park ,museum, all included in entrance ticket. You need to pay for separate arcade games with different denomination coins.There is cafe,popcorn,slushy shop inside if you want to buy food item. Overall fun for all day.

A huge let down. On a recent trip to Poland took the kids there to experience something different and new in a different country… Although the price for western standards was reasonable, the quality was well below expectations, with some of the rides perhaps dating back to early 90s and extremely ran down. Staff tried, but seemed demotivated and just doing what was required to earn their money. Nothing to write home about, apart from this review, locals seemed to like it - but I felt it was steep price for them for what they were actually getting. Won’t come back and wouldn’t recommend.

My opinions are true and honest. This place has much potential and requires proper management. It seems as it lacks the envolvement of the owners. Also a major concern of mine was safety. There is no staff looking in t for the safety of children. Further the amount of staff is fully understaffed. There is not enough staff for the rides. There is no line watching and a run for all on the rides. The only place that is actually staffed is the line park. Which I can’t complain about. What I can complain about is a bouncy castle made for small children to jump and all big kids on there calling names at the small children. This is unacceptable, I confronted a staff member in a yellow shirt which says happy to help who told me that this is how kids play. This establishment needs a small turnaround and safety officer and it will get much much better. As far as the dinosaur trail, I can’t fault it in any way. Owners get on top and take control of the establishment.

Fun place for kids, full of dragons, dinosaurs and other mythical and fairytale creatures.

Really good price for the whole family. There was also a great playground and jumping castle that was free. Good for small children. Only bad thing was the food. Update 2025, been going for 6 years, getting worse each year and more expensive. Not surprised if they close it down soon...

Malbork Railway Station is a beautifully restored neo-Gothic building that serves as the main rail hub in the town of Malbork, Poland. Originally opened in 1890, the station underwent significant renovations between 2010 and 2011, preserving historical elements such as bullet marks from World War II and intricate architectural details like coats of arms and wooden ceilings .  The station is conveniently located in the city center, approximately a 10–20 minute walk from the renowned Malbork Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site . It features four covered platforms accessible via an underground passage and offers connections to major Polish cities, including Gdańsk, Warsaw, and Kraków, through Intercity (IC), TLK, and regional Polregio services .   Facilities at the station include a ticket office, a waiting room, restrooms located in a separate building, a limited number of luggage lockers, vending machines, a small bar, and a fast-food outlet. An ATM is available in front of the station .  While the station provides essential amenities, travelers should be aware that the number of luggage lockers is limited. For those planning to visit Malbork Castle, additional luggage storage options are available near the castle’s ticket office . It’s also advisable to check train schedules in advance, as regional trains can be crowded during peak times .   Overall, Malbork Railway Station combines historical charm with functional services, making it a pleasant starting point for exploring the town and its famous castle.

A few coin lockers for big luggage in the train station. There also some relatively smaller ones in the Malbork castle. (Train station ones are bigger but fewer)

A very beautiful station, a bit dirty. They got a storage locker that you can put your stuff in. 2 big ones and 3 small ones with a cost. If you plan to visit the Malbork Castle, there is a free locker under the ticket office which is free but you will need a 2 zloty coin to use it but you will get it back when you return the key.

If you are coming to Malbork from say Gdansk by train you will arrive here. The station is constructed of red brick and is in great condition. The interior is many coats of arms near the ceiling of local areas. The station is about 10-15 minutes walk from the Castle and you take the route through the town.

Malbork railway station is one of beautiful railway station.

Nice building of the railway station in Malbork. Everyting is clean and well-groomed. It took us about 45 minutes to get from the main train station of Gdansk to Malbork. And the center of the town is in 10 minutes by foot. The building made of red bricks is beautifully renovated.

Small stop if you’re coming from Gdańsk to visit Malbork Castle. Taxis are outside on the left, but ask for the rate to the Castle (15 PLN in Jan 18). Not easy getting a taxi back from the Castle but it’s a short 15 min walk.

It’s a fascinating place to explore, full of winding halls, towers, and hidden corners that really give you a feel of its medieval past. Walking through it is both fun and atmospheric, and you can easily spend hours discovering new details. The audio guide is excellent—clear, engaging, and full of stories that make the history come alive in a really enjoyable way.

Okay wow! This is a world heritage site and a must to visit when in Poland. So much history here and the engineering has stood the test of time. There's translation devices for most languages when you enjoy the walking tour. As an Orthodox Christian I can still enjoy the beauty and pure massiveness of this romantic place from another time.

I've never done a self guided or audio tour before, but this was definitely an awesome experience if you're into exploring historical sites. The audio guide was fairly detailed and the English speaking version was great. Each section had me engaged and excited for the next part of the tour. The whole experience was one I won't forget and I really wish I could've brought my family to experience it with me. I'd love to post more pictures, but I don't want to take away from the experience.

An amazing castle to tour. The audio guide is wonderful and guides you to all the rooms and gives interesting information. The castle is really fascinating and beautiful! The restaurant is also worth a visit with super delicious traditional food.

Really great tour experience. Self guided with English headset MP3 type of device. Easy to stay walking distance at nice hotels. Ordered the ticket type we wanted online the night before and simply go to the ticket office and receive an audio device.

The castle is very interesting amd definitely worth visiting! The building is split into multiple parts so the complex over all is HUGE and you can easily spend several hours just walking around. When I went the audio guide was included which was fairly nice, but a bit dry in terms of the content. It is difficult to find your way around the castle as most doors are not marked so the audio guide which literally tells you where to go, what door to open etc, was very useful for navigation. As a historic site it is really worth taking a day trip to visit the castle and the castle grounds.

Impressive architecture. With the audio guide it's a great history lesson. While it's pretty much an unfurnished castle there are some great displays such as the Amber Room, the armory with weapons ranging centuries from both European and Eastern countries. In addition, the cellar restaurant was surprisingly excellent and fairly priced. Recommend!

Closed! I went there solely to get there.

can't see or hear any birds

Beautiful place)

For birdwatchers. Two observatory towers.

(Translated by Google) It is worth coming here only in the morning, with binoculars or, better yet, a telescope. In spring or autumn. We were there in May, in the middle of the day, without equipment, and unfortunately we didn't see any rare birds. A lot of people, which also makes it impossible to observe quietly in the lookout rooms. The route itself is beautiful and charming. However, the trip to Mewia Łacha was definitely more beautiful - the birds were closer and the beach was exceptionally beautiful. (Original) Warto tu przyjść wyłącznie z samego rana, z lornetką lub lepiej lunetą. Wiosną lub jesienią. Byliśmy w maju, w środku dnia, bez sprzętu, i niestety rzadkich ptaków nie uświadczyliśmy. Sporo ludzi, co też uniemożliwia cichą obserwację w czatowniach. Trasa sama w sobie piękna, urokliwa. Piękniejsza zdecydowanie była jednak wycieczka na Mewią Łachę - ptaki były bliżej, plaża wyjątkowo piękna.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, especially enjoying its excellent location and the range of fun activities, like the medieval fair activity our work had booked. The rooms were comfortable, and the spa and pool added a nice touch to the experience. However, the service could have been more attentive, and there were quite a few spiders outside the windows. Overall, a good place for a unique getaway.

We didn’t stay overnight but had a quick visit to take pictures. This is a historical site that has been turned into a spa and hotel. Maybe we’ll come back to stay one day, but business must be good as the two ladies in the reception weren’t enthusiastic about talking to us or recommending any services. In fact, they seemed more interested in talking to each other. Let’s ignore that though as it’s a pretty beautiful to visit.

Good castle view. The hotel was ok outside but the rooms were a bit old. Restaurant was ok

The experience was nice and exciting to be in such a historic place. There were three hotels, the castle, a Palace and a modern style building. Each having its own nice feel and we stayed in the Palace. For the gym, swimming pool and other attractions we had to always move to the main castle and meals were served in the modern building so for me was not so comfortable but it's OK.

Great. Bowling line, Swimming pool, nothing more to ask for 10:10 💜

Very good hotel. The reception service is very friendly and solved all the issues very promptly. There is not many people in restaurant that speaks English. The swimming pool is nice. Archery practice is also a plus. If you go by car, the access is easy, and if you go by train, you need extra attention because the train only arrives in a nearby city. The station does not offer any sort of service, products or any kind of facilities. It is recommended that you book your taxi on the way by searching on Google for any taxi driver or company in town, once on site there is nothing.

Great place for relax. Castle is beautifull and there are some attractions too, like night walks with guide dressed up as crusseider. Pool is open since early morning, 2 bowling alleys 🎳. The restaurant I great and buffet exquisite Definitely not our last time there.
