The Ostrężnik Castle was completely destroyed, and more precise information about it is missing. The castle is located in the forest on a hill and borders a rock, with which it was connected by passages. The mysterious and rather gloomy ruin of the fortress, probably dating from the 14th century, is one of the least known defensive structures of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland. The outlines of the walls are preserved in very poor condition. The layout of the castle, divided into upper, lower, and outer bailey, is also barely recognizable today.

The royal castle, probably built by Casimir the Great, was an important defensive point in the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, the castle was attacked many times, including by the troops of Archduke Maximilian. The ruins of the castle in Olsztyn near Częstochowa are picturesque remains of a 14th-century stronghold on the Eagle's Nests Trail. It is located on a hill, and its distinctive feature is a 35-meter high cylindrical tower. This is a historical place, surrounded by legends, including that of the ghost of Maćko Borkowic, and offering wonderful views of the surrounding area.
