Lanckorona Castle, Medieval fortress ruins in Lanckorona, Poland.
The stone remnants of Lanckorona Castle occupy the summit of Lanckorońska Mountain at 545 meters above sea level, offering views of the surrounding region.
King Casimir III the Great commissioned the construction of this defensive structure in the early 14th century to protect the route toward Kraków.
The castle foundations reveal the architectural principles of Polish Gothic style, with a rectangular layout and remnants of four-sided corner towers.
Visitors reach the castle ruins by following an ascending path from the Market Square through St. John Street, which becomes unpaved toward the summit.
French engineers created external earth fortifications including a tick-shaped fort during the Bar Confederation period in 1770.
