The Malbork Castle Museum website offers a captivating virtual tour of Malbork Castle, one of the largest medieval castles in Europe. The site, primarily in Polish, can easily be switched to English using Google Translate, making it accessible for non-Polish speakers. Through this immersive 360-degree experience, teachers can guide students through the castle's expansive courtyards, historic chambers, and fortifications, highlighting the architectural marvels and historical significance of the Teutonic Knights' headquarters. This virtual tour provides an engaging way to explore medieval history and architecture, which is ideal for enriching history lessons with a virtual field trip.

After exploring the castle, have students research a specific architectural feature (ex.:vaulted ceilings or decorative elements). They can present findings on why these elements were important in medieval castle design and defense. Assign students to research the Teutonic Knights' history, focusing on their role in Europe and why they built Malbork Castle. Students could create a brief presentation or write a report, connecting their lessons with their virtual tour observations. Students can create a diorama or 3D model (digitally with a tool like Clipdrop, reviewed here) of Malbork Castle or specific sections of it, focusing on accurate representations of the architectural features observed in the tour.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
