Bishops' Castle in Lidzbark Warmiński

Highlight • Castle

This imposing castle once belonged to the Teutonic Order. Over the centuries and through successive successions, it became the property of the princes, and later the bishops of Varnia.

For about seven years, the castle served as the residence of the famous astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus. The residence was then owned by his uncle Lukáš Vatzenrode.

Between 1858 and 1932, the palace was used as an orphanage and a hospital. World War II brought its own changes, transforming the castle into a prison for Soviet soldiers. Part of the immense palace is occupied by a 4-star hotel. The other part is a museum. The residence also has a spa. Here, you can combine business with pleasure. Enjoy your visit and have a wonderful stay!

The first parish priest of Lidzbark in the years 1305-1321 was Fr. Heynemann, who performed priestly ministry in a wooden church. Probably the first wooden church in Lidzbark was burnt down in 1311 by the Lithuanian prince Witenes. The date of consecration of the wooden church from 1315 under the invocation of Saints Peter and Paul.
The construction of a brick temple was carried out in the second half of the 14th century in the form of a three-nave, five-span hall. The church has stellar vaults from the end of the 14th century in the nave and aisles, and from the 15th century in the tower chapels. The church tower, initially low with a wooden superstructure, was built in the last years of the 14th century and was raised in the next two centuries to the present height of 66 m. a baroque turret, and the church tower is decorated with a cupola with three pyramidal lanterns ending with a flag with the coat of arms of bishop Teodor Potocki. The church was expanded in the years 1892-1896, when a neo-Gothic three-nave basilica chancel, a new sacristy and side porches were added on the eastern side.
The most important collections of the Lidzbark parish treasury include:
- herma st. Ida from around 1420 with a silver crown from the 20th century.
- gothic chalices (two from the 15th century and one from the 16th century)
- a pacifier (cross) from the 16th century - with a foot and a nodus from the beginning of the 18th century, with a 16th-century cross on it.
- a pacific from the 13th century and a complete monstrance from the 18th century
