Tarnowice Stare Castle, Renaissance castle in Tarnowskie Góry, Poland.
The castle features four wings surrounding an interior courtyard, with a substantial tower positioned at the southeastern corner of the structure.
Constructed between 1520 and 1570 by Piotr Wrochema, who accumulated wealth from local mining operations, the castle underwent modifications through several centuries.
The Center of Art and Ancient Crafts within the castle displays historical furniture collections, craft tools, and rare books in its exhibition spaces.
The castle offers guided tours from Tuesday to Friday between 9:00 and 16:00, and during weekends from 11:00 to 17:00 at regular hourly intervals.
The structure incorporates underground tunnels that connect to the old St. Martin's Church, while legends tell of the ghost of Baltazar Ohm-Januszewski wandering the halls.
