A wonderful, unique (and famous) museum of mining and the history of Złoty Stok. Gold is still being mined here. Wonderful exhibits, guided tours with cave access, and a great offer for families with children. History, learning, and fun – a fantastic place. More here: https://kopalniazlota.pl/en/homepage/

The beginnings of the castle are unknown. Different dates are given, sometimes the 13th century, sometimes the 15th. It is known that around 1600 the castle was rebuilt in the Renaissance style. At that time it was surrounded by a wall and a moat. In the 17th century it was enlarged, and later, in the 18th and 19th centuries it was rebuilt twice. Today's appearance is the result of all this work. After World War II, the castle became the property of the State Centre for Embryo Breeding. The castle was used for offices, and later it housed a library, a café and a village community centre. Today the castle is still in state hands. It belongs to the National Centre for Supporting Agriculture.
