The Unfinished Castle in Łapalice

Highlight • Castle

This unfinished castle was built by a sculptor and furniture manufacturer from Gdańsk, who in 1984 received permission to build a residential house with a sculpture studio. Looking at what he built, his imagination definitely got carried away. In 1991, construction was officially suspended as the facility being constructed exceeded the provisions of the building permit. Then came the investor's financial problems and the matter stuck for years.
The castle took on a life of its own and became legendary. Even when empty, it makes a stunning impression, so over time it became a true illegal and dangerous, but undoubtedly interesting, and for many, even magical, tourist attraction.

Unfinished Castle in Łapalice — Perimeter Wall

Highlight • Castle

Kazimierczak has since submitted multiple applications to be allowed to continue building on his castle, but so far they have all been rejected. And yet, the unfinished building, solely due to its incredible size, has become a tourist attraction that thousands of people visit every year. Among locals, the place is just as popular for picnicking against the impressive backdrop.
