Reduced: Historical Castle Route, for pupils, students, teachers, over-65s, and disabled visitors and carers (conditions apply)60 złabout €14

A lower rate of 60 zł, about €14, (Reduced: Historical Castle Route, for pupils, students, teachers, over-65s, and disabled visitors and carers) applies only to some visitors or dates. Check whether it applies to you before you book.

Good for
Visitors who can reach Malbork on their own: 80 zł covers the Historical Castle Route with a guide or an audio guide, and the ticket office is about 15 minutes' walk from the station.
Not ideal for
Visitors short of time, as the museum says a guided visit takes at least three and a half hours, and Monday visitors: only the grounds route opens.
