Inowłódz Castle, Medieval castle in Inowłódz, Poland

The castle stands on elevated ground near the Pilica River, featuring thick sandstone walls, an octagonal tower, and a rectangular defensive tower.

King Kazimierz the Great commissioned the construction of this defensive structure between 1356 and 1366 to protect the trade route from Lviv to Toruń.

The Municipal Cultural Center inside the castle walls currently serves as a center for local traditions and cultural activities in the Łódź region.

The castle contains a tourist information office and public library in the renovated sections of its southern and eastern wings.

The castle's original drawbridge operated through a counterweight system installed in the quadrangular southern tower during the 16th-century reconstruction.
