Castle in Crucvice. . It is located near the city of Bydgoszcz, on one of the most popular routes among tourists, which is called the "path of eagle nests." The castle was built in the fifteenth century. Immediately at the end of construction, the castle became, and well deserved and substantiated, the residence of the Polish kings. Why is well deserved and justified, will help to understand the story. The fact is that in the fourteenth century, there was no intermediary wars between the princes of Polish, as follows, the city was almost completely destroyed by Koleolev's king beoleste. The city managed to restore, but not at all for a long time, because in the fifteenth century he was chosen and safely occupied the troops of medieval crusaders. In those days, Poland, Casimir Great rules, and it was he who won the restless crusaders who gave an order that a reliable stone castle was built in the Crucvice, the main function of which was the strengthening of the borders of Poland, from the Militant Pomerania. After a century, namely in the sixteenth century, the castle has lost its value due to the lack of attacks and as a result, was completely launched and fell in full decline. In the seventeenth century, the Swedes attacked Poland, who almost completely destroyed not only the castle himself, but also the city in which he actually was. So, the ruins of the castle, stood for a very long time, gradually destroying under the influence of adverse weather conditions, and only at the end of the nineteenth century, it was decided to restore the castle. It was not possible to completely recreate the castle, but the observational tower called the mouse, they were completely reconstructed and it was exactly at the moment, is the main attraction of the castle.
Castle Chelukhov . There is a castle in a town with the same name, which is near the city of Bydgoszcz. The Teutonic castle, which was built in the period from 1312 to 1365, as you already managed to guess, is the main attraction, this small provincial town. The story of this castle, quite troubled, and would even say that she was just stormy. Here, sudid yourself. In 1454, Polish troops were knocked out from the castle of the Knights of the Teutonic Order and three hundred years lived a calm life since from 1466 to 1770, being a quiet and cozy residence of the kings of Polish. The kings so calmly and comfortably lived here that in the period from 1633 to 1637, on the territory of the castle, built a new building from two floors, as royal orders. In addition to the fact that the kings lived here, so the castle also served as a fortress that protected the northwestern border of the country. In 1656, restless Swedes attacked the country and they managed to take possession of this castle, but they tried not for long, because after a year in 1657, the castle was repulsed and returned to the Poles. After a hundred years, in 1786, a fire has happened in the castle, which destroyed it almost completely, and which did not destroy the fire, destroyed local aborigines, disassemble the castle walls to their own needs. Already by 1811, from the once majestic structure, only a tower of forty-six meters is left only. In the period from 1826 to 1828, new construction was developed here. The idea was to build a Lutheran Church on the spot of the castle. Taking advantage of the surviving foundation and the tower. The idea was successful, the church was built, and the bell tower was arranged in the tower.
