Bąkowiec Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Remains of a former castle from the 14th century - part of the Eagle's Nests (a system of fortifications in this area). Beautiful, atmospheric and great views of the area from above.

This reconstructed hillfort on Birów Mountain is a true attraction. The hill itself, rocky and unusual, is a remarkable geographic formation, but this former royal castle, styled in Slavic style, is truly remarkable. Admission is charged, but inexpensive. Worth it!

Ogrodzieniec Castle

Highlight • Castle

For a ruin, the complex is quite well preserved. Several spiral staircases for access to the upper floor. Currently somewhat restricted due to construction work. The facility also includes a torture cellar (located a little next door).
