Ruiny Zamku w Olsztynie k. Częstochowy

The ruins of Olsztyn Castle near Czestochowa are a fascinating monument of medieval defensive architecture, dating back to the 13th century.

The mighty 35-meter-high Gothic tower and picturesque walls set into the limestone rocks create a remarkable setting that takes you back to the time of Casimir the Great.

The castle, originally known as Przymiłowice, was an important defensive point on the border of Silesia and Malopolska. According to local legends, there is an underground connection between the castle and the Jasna Góra Monastery, which adds to the mystery of the place.
