The Teutonic Knights’ castle at Miłomłyn was built at Miłomłyn in the 1st half of the 14th century as the seat of the prosecutor and the town was located in 1335. After the secularization of the order, till 1587, the castle was handed over to the Pomezanian bishops; until 1587 Protestant bishops this diocese had been present here. Then became the property of the Prussian State and the headquarters of the garrison. At the beginning of the it was handed in private hands. The castle burned in 1848, the ruins were dismantled and built a villa, which became the seat of the forest inspectorate Prinzwalde since 1862. The building was demolished in 1945. During archaeological works, 4 trenches were designated in accessible parts of the yard (A – D) and garden and 5 trial pits in cellars (E – I) to recognize the mediaeval castle disposition. It turned out that a preserved residential building was erected on the cellars of the medieval castle. The mediaeval foundations were found also in the trenches B and C, and relics of demolished foundation – in the trench A. It seems to me that the mediaeval castle has consisted of at least two buildings arranged at an angle around the courtyard. This corresponds to the preserved sketch of the castle from the mid-eighteenth century. Stables were to the east of the castle building.

Slavia Antiqua: rocznik poświęcony starożytnościom słowiańskim

Mediaeval historians as well as archaeologists have been intrigued by the beginning of Christianity in Poland. The interest intensified in 2016 when the country celebrated the 1050th anniversary of the baptism of Poland. The accompanying discussions indicate that facing the ambiguous written sources, researchers still disagree about fundamental data like the year and the location of the baptism, its circumstances or material evidence of the events. An argument was put forward that in this context, celebrating the 1050th anniversary of the baptism of Poland is groundless. Attention was drawn to the fact that baptism of the ruler and his entourage did not affect the country’s inhabitants who remained pagans for a long time afterwards. In this article, I highlight some aspects of the research and the controversy surrounding the interpretation of archaeological finds from the beginning of Christianity in Poland. I also indicate other possibilities of interpreting the existing archaeological sources and the possible ways in further research.
