ThepalaceofAnnaVasawaserectedbefore1564ontheinitiativeofRafałDziałyński,
a major of the Brodnica county. The seat of the new palace building was an earlier
gothic edifice erected in the times of the Teutonic Knights. The main reason for
erection of the residence was a fire in the Teutonic castle, an old seat of the supreme
power in Brodnica, which broke out in 1550. Fragments of brick walls and pre-castle
buildings of the burnt castle were used for erection of the palace. In the years 1605-
1625 the palace was the home of princess Anna Vasa, a sister of the Polish king
Sigismund Vasa III. Anna Vasa was an intelligent and well educated person. She
created a strong cultural centre in Brodnica and often hosted scholars and writers in
the palace. Apart from the Swedish princess, the palace also belonged to mayors of
the Brodnica county and numerous eminences of those times. The palace may have
been a place of stay of Napoleon Bonaparte, the French emperor, who stayed in
Brodnica for several days at the beginning of 1807. The palace was extended in the
years1678-98. Following a fire of 1945, the palace was restored in the years 1960-70
and used as the seat of the Provincial House of Culture and library. Since 1986 the
palace has been the seat of the Regional Museum in Brodnica.

The granaries in Grudziądz are located on the Vistula escarpment erecting to the
direction of the Teutonic castle ruins. In the Middle Ages, Grudziądz, owing to its
location of the river and fertile land, became a significant centre of grain trade
and, therefore in the years 1346-1365 they started to build granaries to be used
for storage purposes. The line of high granaries substituted the earlier brick wall
and, so, the buildings were included in the city fortification system. The roof ridges
of the granaries face towards one another creating a defence wall with its height
exceeding 20 m. The granaries found on the side of the Vistula were additionally
reinforced. Despite the reinforcements, the granaries were partially destroyed.
In most of the buildings gothic bricks were preserved only in on the ground floor
level and top parts were added in later centuries. In the granaries interiors original
wooden structures and beam ceilings have been preserved. At the turn of the
19th and 20th centuries several granaries were converted into houses. In 1907
a passage leading down to the Vistula was built and one can stroll along the Błonie
Nadwiślańskie along the old buildings.

was to create and register a mother strain referred to as „the sheep of Kołuda”.

a technology of farm production of sheep cheese such as, among other, smoked
cheese, semi-hard cheese, spread cheese, brine cheese, quark and yoghurts made
from pasteurised sheep milk. Raw materials for cheese production are obtained
mechanically from the sheep bred in the Department. Sheep is fed with natural

Wyspa Młyńska is one of the most exceptional and enchanting places in Bydgoszcz.
What makes it exceptional is, above all, its location in the very heart of the city and
just a few steps away from the Old Market. Starting from the Middle Ages and
throughout several subsequent centuries, Wyspa was an industrial centre of the
city. It was the seat of the royal mint, which operated there with intervals from
1594 to 1688. The mint of Bydgoszcz was famous, among others, for its 100 ducats
of Sigismund III Vasa, which were, perhaps, the largest gold coins in the history
of Europe. Presently Wyspa Młyńska is a green oasis in the centre of the city with
nearly four hundred inhabitants. Most of the buildings found on Wyspa Młyńska
date back to the 19th century, however, cellars of the so-called White Granary were
erected as early as in the 15th century.
The atmosphere of the river isle in Bydgoszcz is today created by water, small
bridges, old mills, redbrick buildings reﬂecting in the waters of the Młynówka, its
