A city with almost a thousand years of history, recorded in 1065, Ciechanów is one of the oldest and largest cities of northern Mazovia, particularly known for its medieval castle, brewery, founded in the 18th century, and the science park with the unique hyperboloid water tower. The city has experienced several foreign invasions and was the site of the publication of Poland's pioneering honey harvesting law in 1559.
