Ryn Castle

Ermland-Masurien · Polen · Hotel

The Teutonic Order's castle at Ryn, in the heart of the Masurian lake district, is today a castle hotel – but the nights are said to belong to a weeping lady. According to local legend she is Anna, a duke's wife whom the Teutonic Knights walled up alive within the castle walls together with her children, and her despairing lament still echoes through the vaults. Hotel staff describe her as a benign ghost who mostly appears to male guests lost in the long corridors. The castle is also said to hide secret underground passages leading into the town.
