The castle is a classic example of a medieval fortress and, on its completion in 1406, was the world`s largest brick castle.[3] UNESCO designated the `Castle of the Teutonic Order in Malbork` and the Malbork Castle Museum a World Heritage Site in December 1997.[4] It is one of two World Heritage Sites in the region with origins in the Teutonic Order. The other is the `Medieval Town of ToruÃâ`, founded in 1231 as the site of the castle Thorn.
