Hiking

The medieval city walls of Głogów were built in the last quarter of the 13th century after the city received privileges in 1253, replacing earlier wooden-earth fortifications that were destroyed in a fire in 1291. The brick walls formed a square perimeter of about 20 hectares, featuring 17 open towers, 9 defensive towers, and three main gates: Brzostowska (west), Szpitalna (south), and Polska (east). In the early 15th century, a second lower wall with 14 semicircular bastions was added to adapt the defenses for artillery warfare

Hiking

This fragment of the preserved walls has a tower. In the past, it was possible to enter it by specially built stairs. Today, there is no entrance because the stairs are in very poor condition and it is simply dangerous.
