Borysławice Zamkowe Castle, Gothic castle in Borysławice Zamkowe, Poland

The castle consists of two parallel three-story residential buildings enclosed within defensive walls measuring 21 by 25 meters on an island surrounded by water.

Archbishop Wojciech Jastrzębiec initiated the construction of this fortress in 1425 as his residence during negotiations with the Teutonic Knights.

The fortress represented the authority of church dignitaries in medieval Poland through its combination of defensive features and residential comfort.

The castle ruins remain on private property near national road 92, with remnants of the gate tower and residential buildings visible behind a water-filled moat.

The fortress incorporated a polygonal corner tower and a courtyard connected by arcades, elements that distinguished it from other medieval Polish castles.
