The High Gate in Lidzbark Warmiński is a Gothic defensive structure built in the second half of the 15th century (ca. 1466–1478) as part of the medieval city walls and was one of three gates leading into the city. Only this gate, now also known as the Foregate, remains today. It is a four-story brick structure with two semicircular towers and a pointed archway, constituting one of the most valuable Gothic monuments in Warmia and Mazury. In the 17th–19th centuries, the structure was adapted for artillery fire, and after being rebuilt in the mid-19th century, it served, among other purposes, as a courthouse. The gate walls still contain remnants of the 1520 bombardment, in the form of embedded cannonballs. Today, the High Gate is an important symbol of the city and a tourist attraction.

The Łyna River is the longest river in Warmia and Mazury, which is great for cycling along its picturesque sections, especially in the areas of Olsztyn and Lidzbark Warmiński. The trail along the Łyna leads through forests, meadows and small villages, and the routes are varied - from asphalt to forest paths, so a trekking bike is the best choice. In the area, it is worth seeing the Las Warmiński nature reserve and the numerous bridges and footbridges over the river, which create atmospheric places to rest. In the summer, repellents will come in handy, because there are often a lot of mosquitoes by the water.

In this village founded on November 18, 1349 by the Bishop of Warmia, there are around 330 inhabitants. The place is surprising, because it also houses the sanctuary of Our Lady of Peace. Before the construction of the imposing church, there was only a modest chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The title of minor basilica was awarded to the church by Pope John Paul II on May 19, 1987.

With its slightly flashy blue color, you can't go wrong. Barely 600 meters further, a beautiful swimming spot is available to you.
