Hotel 1231 - Toruń

Hotel 1231 in Torun is a place pulsating with soul and unusual history

The hotel is located in the center of the Old Town, on the grounds formerly belonging to the castle. The significance of the year 1231, embedded in its name, harks back to a pivotal moment when the knights of the Teutonic Order, led by Master Hermann von Balk, laid the foundation for the castle, which eventually evolved into the vibrant city of Torun we know today. The older part of the hotel complex is the restored Mill from the 13th century, while the one renovated served as a hospital for the sick and wounded in the 14th century. A connecting underground corridor not only facilitates movement but also serves as a captivating space for showcasing graphics and narrating the rich history of the edifice.
