Zamek w Rudzie Śląskiej, Gothic Revival castle ruins in Ruda, Poland
The castle features thick stone walls reaching three meters, with preserved cellars demonstrating medieval defensive architecture techniques.
Built in the late 14th century by the Rudzki family, the castle underwent multiple transformations until Soviet soldiers burned it down in 1945.
The castle complex includes the residence of Karol Godula, an industrial magnate who managed zinc mines in the region during the 19th century.
The Chudow Castle Foundation maintains the site, which includes benches and refreshment facilities for visitors exploring the medieval remains.
The castle grounds contain biological diversity in the Rów Rudzki II area, combining historical architecture with natural environmental features.
