It was founded on a hill on the high right bank in the lower reaches of the Pregolya River on the site of the PRussian settlement Twangste on September 1, 1255 as a castle by the knights of the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order Poppo von Ostern and the Czech king Přemysl Otakar II. The troops of the latter came to the aid of the knights who were defeated by the local population, who, in turn, were invited to PRussia by the Polish king to fight the pagans.
