Gościszów Castle, Renaissance castle ruins in Gościszów, Poland.

The castle features an oval layout with multiple sections, including a corps de logis, two wings, and a courtyard enclosed by a medieval wall with a gate point.

Built between 1541 and 1643 for the von Warnsdorf family, the castle incorporated parts of an earlier medieval structure that dated back to 1318.

The main facade contained sgraffito decorations and a portal from 1603, which displayed a semi-circular arch with figures carved in bas-relief.

The castle structure remains inaccessible due to extensive vegetation growth and deterioration, with only peripheral walls and decorative elements standing.

A landscape park extends to the north, while a former manor farm, now a granary, stands to the west, displaying crests of noble families connected to the estate.
