A historical and archaeological overview JF - Archaeologia Historica Polona JA - AHP VL - 29 IS - SE - Artykuły DO - 10.12775/AHP.2021.003 UR - https://apcz.umk.pl/AHP/article/view/41957 SP - 27-41 AB - <p>This article presents written sources that make it possible to reconstruct the history<br>and appearance of the castle in Kruszwica, built in the mid-14th century on the initiative of King<br>Casimir the Great. These are primarily the lustrations of the royal estates and Erik Jönsson<br>Dahlbergh’s engraving included in Samuel Pufendorf’s work De rebus a Carolo Gustavo<br>Sueciae Rege gestis. However, basic information about the Crusaders’ defensive foundation<br>is provided by archaeological research, which verifies and supplements previous historical<br>knowledge. Thus, the results of several archaeological explorations are described, which made<br>it possible to secure the remains of the fortress, reconstruct its layout and form, as well as its<br>later fate in the 19th–21st centuries.</p> ER -
