To the best of knowledge the building proccess of this castle started in year 1342 .
But there are some storys about "Livonian Order" that actually started building a castle there in year 1237 😱
Nowadays this place is a museum where anyone can go for couple €€€ .
This castle was 'owned' by russians til year 1582. After that started swedish-polish fight who could own that and that so until 1700.
I used some facts from wikipedia but photos are my own made 📸👍🇪🇪
