This impressive structure was built in the second half of the 14th century under the orders of the Teutonic Grand Master Winrich von Kniprode, as part of the city's new defense system. In 1838, a fire destroyed the roof, which was subsequently rebuilt with a new structure including a clock tower. Completely destroyed by fire and riddled with bullet holes at the end of the Second World War, the gate was finally rebuilt in the mid-1960s in its present glorious form. A monument worth discovering!

La porte Sainte-Marie, également connue sous le nom de Sztumska, a été érigée dans le cadre de la construction du système de défense de la ville de Malbork dans la seconde moitié du XIVe siècle sous le règne du grand maître Winrich von Kniprode.
C'était l'un des éléments du système permettant la communication avec la ville du sud.
Il y avait un fossé devant elle et, au cours des dernières années, la pré-porte et la deuxième rangée de murs ont été érigées.
En 1807, les Français occupant la ville ont liquidé les ruines de la porte Sainte-Marie, dans laquelle se trouvait autrefois la chapelle.
Le 7 février 1838, l'incendie détruit le toit de la porte.
En 1936-1937, Paul Dombert conçut un nouveau toit recarrelé en tuiles.
En 1945, il a été complètement brûlé et les murs mutilés par des missiles.
