Malbork Castle is a medieval Teutonic Knights castle built in the 13th century. It lies on the Nogat River, an estuary of the Vistula River, near the Polish town of Malbork (German: Marienburg). From 1309 to 1454, the castle served as the seat of the Grand Masters of the Order within the Teutonic Order. Afterward, with brief interruptions from 1457 to 1772, it belonged to Polish Prussia, a province of the Kingdom of Poland, and served as the residence of Polish kings. During this period, the castle was also temporarily under Swedish control. After the partition of Poland, the castle became part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1772, and after the Second World War, it became part of Poland. The extensive castle complex is the largest brick building in Europe. The UNESCO World Heritage Site houses several exhibitions and can be visited year-round on snow-free days." Wikipedia - Malbork (Ordensburg) This castle is without a doubt a highlight. Anyone who is even remotely nearby should definitely stop by.

Stop to enjoy the view. Then nice snacks and drinks are provided at a small market after the bridge.

The Biała Góra Lock is an impressive monument of hydrotechnics, considered the "Water Castle" of Żuławy. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century as the first element of the Nogat cascade, the task of which was to regulate the flow of the river and protect against floods. The chamber lock and weir on the Nogat and the lock on the Liwa River regulate the flow of water to this day, and thanks to modernization, they can be used by tourist units. The modern marina at the lock was built as part of the Żuławy Loop project. Cyclists riding through Żuławy can see the mastery of hydrotechnical engineering and the picturesque landscape of the floodplains.

A beautiful promenade along the northern bank of the Nogat, Malbork itself does not boast of the number of bike paths, but this route is cool, opposite the castle, crossing the bridge to the right bank, there is a great pub with a view of the castle
