Do you have some favorite medieval castles? Share them here 
I like medieval castles of the early Gothic period of the Polish region of Pomerania. My favorites are:
Malbork Castle - the seat of the Teutonic state. Later it became the property of Polish kings. It is one of the most imposing defensive structures in the world, a unique monument of the class of zero. Built at the end of XIII century on the right bank of the Vistula rozwidlonej - - Nogat, stronghold became the seat of great masters. It covers an area of 21 hectares and is surrounded by high and thick walls. It was a powerful fortress so that the state capital of the Teutonic Knights moved from Venice to Malbork it.
