Pre-Teutonic Braniewo was inhabited by Prussians: one of the earlier recorded names was ''Brus'', and there is some speculation that the origins of the city name lie in "Brus-berg".

The next bishop, Heinrich I (1278-1300) had to transfer the chapter from Braunsberg to Frombork (then called Frauenburg). It remained in Frombork until the 20th century.
