  • The Order’s Brother Wolrad, Natangia Mayor when he found out about the preparations invited the many great Prusai nobles to the Lemptenburg castle in the Vistula Lagoon area to the peace agenda and the feast, "and when they got drunk .... left out, closed the door and said gentry and castle burned to ashes." Guests were burnt alive, suffering just punishment - says their chronicler - for conspiring against the Order.
