Wąbrzeźno
Poland, Poland
Wąbrzeźno is a small town in Poland's Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, northeast of Toruń, with roots tracing to a Slavic fortified settlement from the 7th-13th centuries on an isthmus between Frydek and Zamkowe lakes, first mentioned as Wambrez in 1246 under Chełmno bishops' ownership. A key medieval trade hub, it gained town rights around 1331, saw its bishop's Gothic castle built from 1303 (ruined by Swedish forces in 1655), endured Teutonic wars including 1411/1422 destruction and 1464 burning, and passed through Prussian partitions from 1772 before rejoining Poland post-WWI. Notable for Poland's first electric railway (1898-1959) and St. Nicholas parish church from 1251, its castle ruins and historic center reflect centuries of Polish-Teutonic border strife.
