Krosno Odrzańskie, Medieval fortress town in Lubusz Voivodeship, Poland

Located at the intersection of the Oder and Bóbr rivers, Krosno Odrzańskie features stone fortifications and traditional architecture across its riverside landscape.

Duke Bolesław I Chrobry established a defensive fortress in 1005 during conflicts with Emperor Henry II, marking the beginning of the town's military significance.

The annual River Festival in Krosno Odrzańskie brings together local craftsmen, musicians, and food vendors to celebrate the town's connection to the Oder River.

The town center offers multiple accommodation options near the river, with easy access to walking trails and historical monuments throughout the urban area.

The stone castle, constructed by Duke Henry I the Bearded in 1201, stands as a testament to the town's role in protecting Poland's western border.
