Castles in Poland that will take you back in time – 8 places worth seeing

Discover the rich history and architectural diversity of Poland’s castles

Castles in Poland are steeped in history – many of them date back to the Middle Ages and are a testament to past eras, architectural styles, and the changing fortunes of the country. The oldest castle in Poland is Wleń Castle, located in the Western Sudetes in Lower Silesia. It was first mentioned in 1155, and its construction began in 1163. It emerged as a defensive stronghold on a hill, in a strategic location, aimed at controlling communication routes and ensuring the country’s security.

Another significant medieval castle is the Piastowski Castle in Legnica, which may have been built around the same time as Wleń Castle – likely in the second half of the 12th century. Before the castle’s construction, there was a fortified settlement on the site. This settlement dates back to the times of Mieszko I, around 985, and was part of a larger defensive system that included fortresses in Opole and Wrocław. The first stone castle in Legnica was built by Bolesław I Wysoki, who also constructed the castle in Wleń. At that time, a "palatium" (the main residential building) and two defensive towers were erected, which were later named after Saint Peter and Saint Hedwig.

Castles were usually built in hard-to-reach places – on hills, by rivers, or near the end of routes – which was precisely specified for both their defensive and strategic purposes. In the initial period of construction, they were made of wood and earth, but over time they began to use durable materials such as stone and brick. These structures served various functions – they were the seat of rulers, administrative centres, places of refuge, and symbols of power and prestige.
