Years: 1340 - 1340
Königsberg, having become a major trading center, in 1340 joins the Hanseatic League.
It has developed into an important port for the southeastern Baltic region, trading goods throughout Prussia, the Kingdom of Poland, and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
The chronicler Peter of Dusburg probably wrote his Chronicon terrae Prussiae in Königsberg from 1324–1330.
