Zyndram's Hill, Mountain summit in Maszkowice, Poland.
Description
Zyndram's Hill is an archaeological site with remains of stone fortifications built on an elevated location. The eastern and northern sides still show preserved walls, and visitors can see the partially reconstructed eastern gateway.
History
The site was inhabited over several millennia by different peoples, from early settlements through to the time of Celtic groups. Excavations in the second half of the 20th century uncovered remains spanning different prehistoric periods.
Culture
The ruins show craftsmanship from a distant past that remains visible today and reflects how ancient communities built their settlements. Visitors can see how people used stone and chose elevated locations for their homes.
Practical
The site is accessible via established paths that lead to the summit and allow exploration of the ruins. Wear sturdy footwear as the ground is uneven and paths can become slippery in wet conditions.
Did you know?
The stone fortifications rank among the oldest of their kind across all of Poland and show early building techniques that emerged elsewhere much later. This unusually early date makes the site particularly valuable to archaeologists.
