Zamek w Chlewiskach, Medieval castle in Chlewiska, Poland
Zamek w Chlewiskach is a fortified structure in Poland made up of two buildings joined at a right angle, with a tower featuring original arrow slits positioned on a six-meter artificial hill. The site now functions as a hotel complex set within an 8-hectare landscaped park containing more than 100 tree species and recreational facilities.
A wooden fortification was first built in the 12th century by Piotr Dunin, then replaced by a stone structure constructed by the Odrowaz family in the 15th century. The complex was later expanded and adapted by the Chlewicki family.
The castle takes its name from the Chlewicki family who established roots here over generations. Visitors can observe how the structure reflects the family's lasting connection to the land and their role in shaping the region.
The property is easily accessible by car and offers ample parking for visitors. The park pathways are well-maintained and navigable, though some areas on the artificial hill may require moderate physical effort to explore.
The castle's basement contains an extensive network of underground chambers that once stored weapons during medieval times. These hidden spaces reveal how the fortress was designed to withstand prolonged conflict and siege.
