	Order of Dobrzyń - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Order of Dobrzyń (also known as Brothers of Dobrzyń, Polish Bracia Dobrzyńscy; German: Orden von Dobrin) was a military order created in Poland during the Northern Crusades of the 13th century to defend against Baltic Prussian raids.
		The Order was created by Christian, the bishop of Prussia (1216-1228), to protect Masovia and Kuyavia against raids from the pagan Prussians who defied Duke Konrad I of Masovia's attempts to subjugate them.
		In the face of the Order's lack of success in battle against the Prussians, as well as their small number (at its highest, 35 knights), around 1235 a majority of the Knights joined the Teutonic Order, as allowed by papal documents.
