Chełmno walking tour in the morning!

Chełmno  is a town in northern Poland near the Vistula river with 20,000 inhabitants and the historical capital of Chełmno Land.

The city's name Chełmno comes from chelm, the old Polish word for hill. After the arrival of the Teutonic Knights in 1232 the Latin name Colmen was used. During the Middle Ages, the Germanized name Culm was used in official documents regarding the town, as the city was a member of the Hanseatic League and part of the State of the Teutonic Order.

"Chełmno is one of the most beautiful cities in northern Poland. The city has a rich history that spans several centuries, and a well-preserved city center with city walls and churches. The city's location on the outskirts of the Wisła Valley provided the good conditions of defense in the Middle Ages. The old city within the city wall is an example of a medieval urban structure that emerged in a new place and based on a detailed plan that had been prepared in advance."
