Layout in Dzierzgonie


The Dzierzgon Treaty (also known as Dzierzgon Treaty) was signed on February 7, 1249, at the Dzierzgoń castle, after the first Prussian uprising. The event was attended by papal legate Jakub of Leodium, later Pope Urban IV.

The contract was signed after the defeat of the Prussians in the battle of Dzierzgon. She charged the Prussians with respect to the principles of Christian religion, the final renunciation of pagan practices and beliefs, tithing and military service to the Teutonic Order. In return, the Prussians received personal freedom, the right of inheritance, and equality with the German people. Prussians were to apply the Polish law in court and system matters. The agreement concerned only Prussians who submitted to the Order - the Pomezans and natives of Natalia and the northern part of Warmia. Under the Dzierzgon system the Prussians moved to Pasłęka. The peasants from the Mazovia, Bohemia and Germany colonized them.
