Hillfort in Warminsko-mazurskie

The hillfort in Gardyny is one of the best preserved ones in the area of Działdowo. It encloses rather small area (39 x 39 m) and it is surrounded with a rampart and ditch which are perfectly visible. The SW part of the hillfort suffered a damage during construction of the local road. It was an Old Prussians hillfort, however in 15th century the Teutonic knights built their own stronghold in this place.

The hillfort is located on the Southern side of the Gardejki lake, near the buildings of the Gardyny village.
